Burkina Faso President, Ibrahim Traorรฉ, has replaced European judicial attires with traditional African garments for judges and lawyers, embracing the countryโs cultural heritage.
The new attire, made from locally produced Faso Dan Fani fabric, aims to reduce colonial influence and promote national pride.
This move is part of a broader effort to reclaim Burkina Fasoโs identity and support the local economy by promoting indigenous textile production.
The reform extends to all legal professionals, including notaries and lawyers, symbolizing a significant shift toward decolonizing the judiciary.
