 Gov Makinde Directs Oyo Civil Servants to Wear Aso Oke on Thursdays


Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has instructed all civil and public servants in the state to wear Aso Oke fabric every Thursday as part of a cultural and economic initiative.


The directive, issued through a circular from the Office of the Head of Service on January 27, 2025, builds on an existing policy that mandates traditional attire on Fridays.


According to the state government, this initiative goes beyond a mere dress code—it is a strategic move to boost the local economy and preserve Yoruba heritage. By promoting the use of Aso Oke, the policy aims to support local artisans, weavers, and tailors, ensuring sustained demand for indigenous textiles.


Governor Makinde emphasized that the initiative would create jobs, stimulate business growth, and promote tourism, ultimately driving economic development in the informal sector.


“This policy will serve as a catalyst for economic empowerment and cultural preservation,” the governor stated.


Stakeholders in the textile industry have welcomed the move, anticipating increased patronage for local fabric producers.


The directive takes immediate effect, reinforcing Oyo State’s commitment to tradition and grassroots economic growth.
