Afolabi described how her friendships have changed, especially since her lupus diagnosis a few years ago. When Afod asked how her health issues affected her life and her relationships with other actresses, Afolabi openly recognized that some once-strong friendships have faded as her health worsened.
She singled out Sikiratu Sindodo, a colleague she had once seen as a close friend, emphasizing that even though they no longer communicated as often, they still remained in touch.
The dialogue changed direction when Afod questioned whether Afolabi had ever formed close bonds with Nollywood stars such as Iyabo Ojo, Laide Bakare, and Omoborty. Afolabi decisively responded that she had never been friends with them.
Nevertheless, despite losing some connections, Afolabi’s attitude warmed when speaking about one actress who had always been there for her—Mercy Aigbe. She shared sincere admiration for Aigbe, revealing that their relationship had not only endured through her illness but had strengthened over time.
