The Sickle Cell Hope Alive Foundation (SCHAF) has honoured the Managing Director of CEOAFRICA, Prince Cletus Ilobanafor, with a prestigious Excellence Award.

This award is in recognition of his outstanding support in the fight against sickle cell disease since 2012 when the foundation started. Today, December 13, 2023, at the Apex Event Centre, Yidi Road, Agodi, Ibadan, Oyo State.

The award was received by CEOAFRICA, Admin Head, at the event, which was tagged “SCHAF 2023 Gifting Day.”

During the award presentation, Prof. Adeyinka specially acknowledged and appraised the contributions of CEOAFRICA for their relentless efforts towards the success and progress of the SCHAF foundation.

In her words, “The organisation that just came out now (CEO Africa) means a lot to SCHAF. They are here voluntarily to come and raise awareness throughout Africa.

“They are the ones helping us, and we want to appreciate them. Please give them a round of applause,” she said.

Recall that Prince Ilobanafor, in September 2023, received the prestigious ARIKANA EXCELLENCE AWARD from the African Diaspora Development Institute (ADDI) in Washington, DC, for his contributions to expanding the frontiers of socio-economic development on the African continent.
