Like I said b4, d discussion isn't about my father. Its about d statement u made&ur inability to take responsibility 4 it. If there are things better not said, then y did u bring up d discussion in d first place? U are making claims u can't defend. If u had d orientation from ur forebears, it will show with d way u express urself. U are already afraid to stand by what u have said, by what u say u believe. So u aren't displaying any form of maturity. U started a fire&then u running away with ur tail in between ur legs.

Sometimes I don't usually argue facts that are glaring....or when an igbo man is asking me what he already knows and exist in his own family....

Such is madness........

So to summarise ur wisdom for u...when u want to marry don't consult ur people....seek consultation from outsiders.

Sometimes I wonder were most of u guys drop ur brains.

In my eyes osu exists only in the minds of some demented ibos. No human being was born inferior to another
Ideally, that is the truth. All Humans are born Equal.
But, in reality you will agree with me that some humans are born more equal than the others. That is why we have the Royals, the Rulers, Those born into Wealth and Royalty. The slaves. The servants. The 'ordinary' citizens.
NB
This is the reality. We can think of the IDEAL world, but an IDEAL world is not achievable.

So the so called advanced ppl, who love to call others backward, are still harbouring this barbaric primitive system of discrimination?
Many of them when confronted will deny and tell that the system had long been abandoned - apparently not; they are only trying to get rid of it now and that effort seems to have hit the brick wall, for lack of due process.

Na wa oO! So shocking and ironic that Igbos would all the time be wailing Marginalisation when in fact they are busy discriminating against each other - with no end in sight.

Don't be a daft.
Dont Use Derogatory Word On Me. Wise Man, If You Are Not A Hypocrite You (1) Stop Going To Church Because They Are There. (2) Stop Going To The Market Because They Full There, (3) Dont Eat Whatever You Do Not Produce Because The Produce Those Things. (4) Dont Expect Heaven Because Those Former Osu People Will Be There Before You. Most Of You Have In One Way Befriend Osu, Had Sex With Them, Yet You Dont Want Them For Marriage. If You Have Done One Of The Above, You Are The Daft Here.

What a tribe of shameless morons denigrating part of its own an outcast just to be hated. No wonder their lives is dedicate to hating others, na them Hausa Fulani Ikwerre Yoruba Kanuri Arabs South Africans Malaysians Singaporeans Indians Chinese n many others de hate. Yet them claim to hate no one. Shame Shame Shame !!!
I wonder how people like you who are unknowledgeable get like in this country; not surprised shithole we have got.
Fr your info, "OSU" isn't a 2nd class citizen as the writeup wrongly stated but is similar like the "ABOBAKU" in Yoruba but in this case the OSU is dedicated to the gods, isn't killed but allowed to have a wife who is an OSU or a free caste who marries them and automatically becomes an OSU, Have children and live a life separate from the community.
How & why? Anyone who commits a crime or does something abominable and about to be abolished can on their own volition join the OSU caste to be free of the consequences. Once dedicated to the gods is seen as the property of the gods and anybody who touches or hurts them draws the wrath of the gods; this is why people don't interact with them. In fact, mere jest of them in certain cases can incur the wrath of the gods as believed.
You fear them cos they are not to be maltreated, they were never 2nd class citizens

Osu is osu

Freeborn is freeborn....QED.

Abolishing what is greater than u to satisfy some persons in the society....


They are property of the gods and so shall it be.


Moreover just few traditional rulers attended that....

Which stupid curse are they even talking about? Does it mean there are no successful "Osus" living happily and doing good for humanity?

How can you relegate, discriminate, curse your own people and still brag about it? These igbos mehnnnn... You guys are better off achieving your biafra aim. We're so not alike in goodness and character.

-Backward mentality.
- Always hating.
- Always fighting.

Now we know the source. Lol..

We need more of your kind, tell them.
Any body practicing such is evil, we claimed to be dominant Christians but the kind of hate in our region is alarming.
Igbos are not united and thats the fact.
People are leaving Igbo land in droves just to have a sound mind.
A friend of mine who is going through hell because of the harassment from people he call his own once told me that he regrets coming from the east. Some communities are fighting each other because of this.
Igbos hate themselves, they even degrade other states within themselves.

In times of ancient wars instead to join or out of fear they ran to the gods....
