Idiocy is the origin of the Osu caste system.  Idiocy combined with prejudice.

From what I learnt, you are an Osu if you or your forebears have been dedicated to shrines for protection during a war or famine. Simply put, an Osu belongs to a shrine or an "alusi" in Igboland.

Personally, I think you have to choose what you are.
