A culture that dehumanize your fellow humans, is that a culture to uphold or put in high esteem? Who are you to label God's creatures as unfit to mingle with their fellow humans? Any igbo man or woman encouraging and supporting this osu caste system are not any different from Satan himself. All good people both igbo and non igbos should rise up and condemn this osu caste system. This osu caste system is just pure hatred to your fellow humans. God must surely judge those who harbors hatred to their fellow humans.
My brother, it is a shame on a race like that .

And some will still go to church on Sunday and pretend to love thy brother like you love thy self.
I see some comments justifying the practice.
In 2020, this is just a very very backward practice..

Abeg shift go one corner jor!! .."Our fore fathers knows better" ko. Our fore fathers were men that who ignorant and limited to thier little kingdom & thier archaic way of lives as at that time . I do not blame them becos they did not know any better but I blame your kind and that of your fathers that are educated and still practicing this barbaric custome.

You must be filling cool with your self for being part of the free born and the joy it gives you in looking down on another due to what your wicked society has conditioned them to be for a life time ..

If our fore fathers knew any better and their generation after them are expected to abide by the very practices they left behind, then by now there won't be any twins in our society.This is becos in those days twins were considered as bad omen to thier parents and thus must be killed according to laws of the land . Now does that practices sound alright to you ?? Or does the practice of human sacrifice that was once part of our religious rite, so as to appease the gods of our fore fathers a normal thing to you in recent times ? Have these dark practices not been abolished ? So why are still hanging on to this archaic practices that is design to demean another and strip them of thier dignity in the very society they call their own ? Why ?

I pray that in your next life, you should be born an Osu /Ohu, so that you can have a taste of the bitter pill of been called an Osu and suffer thesame fate these people go under go in every areas of thier lives . Wicked soul .
He's is one of them, he should go home and ask his father.

Everybody likes to quench the smoke in another person's house while their village is on fire.
It's like the new thread in Nigeria is attacking Igbo customs and traditions while a young man is about to be hanged for ordinary religion and women can't be allowed to dress the way they like in North by Hisbah all because of religion.
Whereas in South West, the supposed female yoruba monarch that to them symbolizes their equality in gender is not allowed to be with a man talkless of marrying and giving birth.
Everybody in Nigeria is now a Nelson Mandela on Igbo Culture

Keep defending the obnoxious practice in the 21st century just because you and your family are lucky not to fall into that category. Sadly, history have a funny way of repeating itself and the master today may become subject tomorrow. If you doubt this, look at the house of Portpha and Joseph in the Bible and perhaps Obj imprisoned by Abacha only for the decendants of Abacha to watch Obj sworn in twice as president that has power to robe then into issues that could lead them to jail. What is bad is bad.

anyone called osu should just come to edo and marry any of my sisters. And when he becomes rich, he must not contribute a dime in igboland. He should leave them and their useless age-long belief which isn't proven scientifically or religiously. Naxo dem call Philip Emeagwali family an osu. The man, as rich as he is today with so much recognitions globally, refused to do anything in igboland. Damn osu nonsense

Your Edoh sisters that scam people and love money past their lives? Taahhhh! Take it back!

In fairness, everyone knows Igbo girls are the greatest, biggest prostitutes in Nigeria. Infact the Lingua Franca after English at most Nigerian brothels is Igbo. Even your Director Kanu once claimed that "99% of Igbo girls are prostitutes."

That is clearly not true, I have met a lot of Igbo girls that are very decent. Not true at all!

If you have money to buy Amala and Ewedu, you won't be this miserable and your life won't be in tatared like this.

Amala is not a worthless food like your smelly akpu that is worthless. Something people buy for as low as 50 Naira.

I don't eat such barbaric smelly substance. The same it oozes makes me vomit.

Foolish people, when the great Igbo race warned the rest of the country that Buhari is an offspring of illegal immigrants with nothing upstirs they did not heed the advise and went ahead to vote the animal thinking they will subdue us.

They failed and now they are feeling the heat, we the great Igbo race kept progressing because we can't pay a price of what we are not part of, this is just the begining..by the time this foolish man from Futa jalon is done with his fellow Janjeweed and Ewudu muslims, their brain will be reseted and they will sell their ancestral lands to us for a living.
