Osi pronounced Oshi O as in Orange means lord of a clan/family.
Bajo means back from a journey

na real evil name.

Everything about that man look sooooo odd.

He is sooo un-presidential; talk about the very brief height, Tinubu's cell-phone carrier, etc.

I believe he'll do better teaching Theology at Redeemed Seminary at Lagos-Ibadan express-way.

Banjo in Yoruba means "it fits" or 'fits me"

Thus names like Adebanjo = "crown fits me" or "I am fit for the crown" meaning 'i'm fit for wealth' fits me

Olabanjo = "I'm fit for wealth"

Osi = left; Osibanjo = "left fits me" I'm told that the father of people named thus are left handed.

Note that PDP goons would rather use the other meaning of Osi - poverty, in the definition, but we all know that no parent would name his child that way.

Is this a Yoruba translation or Efik-Ibibio?

I guess the correct spelling is osinbajo not osibanjo.

Osinbajo should mean "nonsense is dancing with him" if the O is pronounced like its in Oat. undecided

So many juvenile delinquents on Nairaland. With the idiocy this thread displays, any wonder that so-called elders never take Nigerian youths seriously let alone consider handing over to them as the immature young men and women of Nigeria constantly demand? Which sane elder will hand over to men and women between 20-40 who thinks and talks like they are 9 year old?

Which elder,genuinely concerned about Nigeria, would empower shallow and unfocused young people who only think/talk rubbish and are never found contributing anything positive to the growth or development of their nation? Youths of other Nations are discussing weighty and progressive issues yet Nigerian youths are gossiping about names. What an unlucky Country Nigeria is. Everything that can go wrong seems to go wrong for us.

Actually am not surprised. Looking at Buhari's face alone is enough to make Nigerians poor.
And they call themselves progressives
