Who Ethnic bashing/Insults Epp? Does it bring income? No. Does it give you a Masters Degree? No. Does it give you an emplyment letter? No



Good Morning

According to history books, the expression “Osu” first appeared in the Officers Academy of the Imperial Japanese Navy, in the early 20th century.
In a lot of Karate schools, and even some BJJ / MMA gyms, the term “Osu!” seems to mean everything and anything – including: “hi”, “hello”, “goodbye”, “okay”, “thanks”, “excuse me”, “hey there”, “come here”, “go there”, “what’s up”, “look at me”, “do it this way”, “that way”, “do you understand?”, “I understand” and “train harder”.

It is the ultimate utility word for many martial artists

nairalanders What is the meaning of OSU

OSU is a name given to anybody or person from Osun state.

eg Engr Rauf Aregbesola is a proud Osu.


Someone from Nigeria is called a Nigerian.

someone from britain is called a british or briton.


thus someone from OSUN state is called an Osu.

Osu= Afonja. Slaves to Fulani

[/b]Igbo meaning[b], OSU is somebody that is special or very good in what he is doing, that is why Igbo answer Osuji meaning somebody that is good in farming yam, some answer Osunwa meaning that the person is good in fathering children, some answer only OSU meaning good in everything like Bravely OSU.
Then in the old days in Igbo land migrant that migrated from a place to another place as a result of war,commiting abomination and running away,wandering, famine are regarded as OSU to segregate them from the original inhabitants also someone that run to Oracle to seek for protection is regarded as OSU in olden days which make him or her a special being and untouchable to avoid the rat of Oracle

Balkan:
Osu= Afonja. Slaves to Fulani

Osu are yorubas from Osun state.
simple and short, any other definition is fallacy.

op, you have an osu right here. His name is Tajudeen Olukayode Omisore, he is from osun state thus an osu.

from his comment you will know he is an osu.

op, any further question should be directed to him.

osu means half-half...for example: father igbo,mother yoruba=osu...its senseless...

whatever...
