Dr Afolabi’s profile also rose  in far away Kenya where he was also honoured with  the African Achievers award on Saturday, 23rd February, 2013. He bagged the African Industrialist of the year Award in recognition of his exploits in the business world.
Dr Afolabi journey into the world of Diplomacy began on July 1, 2010, when he was appointed as the Honorary Consul of the Republic of Djibouti in Nigeria by H.E Ismail Omah Guelleh, President of the Republic of the Djibouti.

He is also a holder of the national honour of Member of the Order of Niger (MON).
This silent and unassuming business mogul is also a member of the presidential Business Support Group (BSG); a elite team of  private sector “egg heads“ saddled with the responsibility to provide a platform for anchoring the views of the private sector with a view to supporting the development of the National Integrated Infrastructure Master Plan (NIIMP).
He is also a man with a large  heart with special interest in the less privileged in the society which informed his continued funding of Ajoke Ayisat Afolabi Foundation (AAAF) instituted on behalf of his late mother (Alhaja Ajoke Ayisat Afolabi) with the support of his siblings and members of family.
