Before “broni wawu” came into existence, our grandmothers and grandfathers clad themselves in beautiful Ghanaian prints. We should do the same. We should patronize made in Ghana.
These are fabrics we can buy and turn into bespoke male and female styles. A yard of fabric is between GHS 10 to GHS 16 depending on the brand you choose, and some even go beyond that price because of the designs and the materials used to create the masterpiece.
The government should do its best to support the industry. Provide the needed types of equipment, invest in it, and see the outcome.
The manufacturers can also, once in a while, add a little twist, something different and unique to catch the attention of new buyers both in and out of the country.
Whether you are going for a funeral, a birthday party, a conference, or a dinner with your significant other, choose African print.
Individuals living outside Ghana should also wear made-in Ghana clothes made from Ghanaian fabrics; you will never know, Gucci or Prada can say they want to start using Ghanaian print in their clothes.
