For this purpose, Afuape hired 20 professional teachers, who were divided between the two schools, to instruct students during the summer break.
At Reverend Kuti Grammar School, Afuape, who had previously served as a lecturer at Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, engaged Senior Secondary School 1 (SS1) students in an economics lesson centered on the concept of demand.

He underscored the significance of Afuape’s contributions to the school, speaking on behalf of the school’s management and expressing hope for continued support.
A student of the school, Ewunmi Fatia, extended her thanks to Afoo for his invaluable support during a time when parents were facing difficulties sponsoring summer lessons for their children. She offered her gratitude and prayers for his success in becoming the future governor of the state.
Likewise, Kehinde Tomisin, another student, emphasized the benefits of summer classes in preparing students for examinations. She thanked Afoo for coming to their aid and pledged on behalf of her peers to excel academically.
