Culture › Re: The Superstition Of The Osu Cast System In Igbo Land by humble4all: 11:13pm On Sep 13, 2015
Abagworo:
i'm from imo state and i know orodo near owerri.the documentary is stage managed and cannot therefore be real.the issue of diala,diali,dieli,diani,diana and osu,ume,ohu,oru,agwu dichotomy is widespread but not as alarming as some people are made to think.the osu issue comes to light mainly if marriage is about to occur.no one knows who is an osu until marriage enquiries is made.the reason for refusal to marry osu in present day is not same as in the past.it is purely a family issue.it is a dying tradition and should therefore be left till it finally phases out.
.

Pls my bros and sis kindly advice.Am a student in America and in a serious relationship with a guy I met here in school from owerre nkworji in imo state .AMaegbu precisely while am from anambra.We have been dating for 2yrs and now he has proposed and wishes to officially come and see my people.My family made enquiries and got informed that he is an Osu(outcaste).What rubbish..msthew.However,another source said no that amaegbu has no osu meaning my bf is not one.Pls brothers and sisters am so heartbroken and confused.I do not know why such inhumanity will still be in existence as my family said its a big no that am on my own if I decide to go ahead.Pls any1 who knows the history of amaegbu owerre nkworji should pls say as am bent on marrying him Osu or no osu.
