add one more property to ObjectDrawerItem

public class ObjectDrawerItem {

    public int icon;
    public String name;
    public boolean footer;

    // Constructor.
    public ObjectDrawerItem(int icon, String name,boolean footer) {

        this.icon = icon;
        this.name = name;
        this.footer=footer;
    }
}

then for footer row

drawerItem[2] = new ObjectDrawerItem(R.drawable.ic_action_share, "Help",true);

change listview_item_row.xml to

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="?android:attr/activatedBackgroundIndicator"
    android:minHeight="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeightSmall"
    android:padding="10dp" >

   <RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="+@id/rlRow">
    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imageViewIcon"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:paddingRight="10dp" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textViewName"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/imageViewIcon"
        android:paddingRight="10dp"
        android:text="Folder name here."
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceListItemSmall"
        android:textColor="#ffffff" />
 </RelativeLayout>
  <RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="+@id/rlFooter">
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

finally in adapter getview

if(folder.Footer)
{
(RelativeLayout) listItem.findViewById(R.id.rlFooter).setVisibility(View.Visible);
(RelativeLayout) listItem.findViewById(R.id.rlRow).setVisibility(View.Gone);
}
else
{
(RelativeLayout) listItem.findViewById(R.id.rlFooter).setVisibility(View.Gone);
(RelativeLayout) listItem.findViewById(R.id.rlRow).setVisibility(View.Visible);
}
