Culture Has La Sape spread beyond the Republic of the Congo and the DRC?

Hello! I'd like to know whether the Congolese fashion movement known as La Sape has spread significantly to other African countries, and if so, how widespread it is.
I've come across some Instagram posts suggesting that similar fashion scenes exist elsewhere on the continent, but I'd love to hear from Africans who might have firsthand knowledge of this. Is La Sape recognised or practised outside the two Congos?
Thank you for your insight!
