Makinde Directs Oyo Workers to Wear Traditional ‘Aso Oke’ Every Thursday

50

Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has introduced a new dress code policy, directing all civil and public servants in the state to wear native attire with a touch of traditional ‘Aso Oke’ fabric every Thursday.

This new directive complements the existing tradition of wearing native attire on Fridays.

The directive, issued to heads of ministries and agencies on Monday 27, was said to be a way to preserve Yoruba culture while stimulating the local economy.

According to a circular from the Office of the Head of Service, the policy seeks to “showcase and preserve Oyo State’s vibrant cultural heritage” while generating economic opportunities.

The circular highlighted that incorporating aso oke, a handwoven fabric deeply rooted in Yoruba tradition will directly benefit local weavers, dyers, and tailors.

“This initiative sustains livelihoods, reduces unemployment, and increases income streams for artisans,” the circular stated.
