lol, me neither. But it is from an oriki, so it is really Yoruba, perhaps its a contraction of more than one word...

Someone who is in touch with the author of the book where the word appears translated it as "O poro li ka", meaning "He who easily expands around", something that has similar meaning as Ogun's salutation "Ala ka aiye/Lakaye".
