Culture › Re: I'm About To Marry An 'Outcast' (Osu) Guy by youngies(m): 12:16pm On Apr 17, 2007
Historical Perceptive
The Osu, by definition, is a people sacrificed to the gods in Igbo community. And they assist the high priest of the traditional religion to serve the deities or the gods in their shrine. It is the belief of many Igbo traditionalists that the deities, which were (and are still) perceived in some quarters as being very powerful, would wreck havoc in the society, if they are not appeased.

In some special circumstances, those who hold the traditional beliefs of the Igbos could transform a Diala who committed certain atrocities against the land, into an Osu. This process involved intricate rituals (offering of libations and sacrificing animals to the earth goddess). Some of the ancestors of the present-day Osu people inherited their dehumanizing social status this way.

In some circumstances, prisoners captured during inter-communal wars were sold off, and their new owners could elect to enlist some of them to Osu status by giving them away as gestures of and placation to a local deity. Other captives could be sold as slaves or become objects of ritual murder, which occurred mostly upon the death of powerful chieftains.

However, some war captives preferred the Osu status rather than being sold far away to distant lands as slaves. Thus, the population of the Osu increased. Evidence suggests that the Osu were originally regarded with “respect and honour” apparently because they belonged to the gods. This show of respect for those who attended to the shrines, unfortunately, transformed into social ostracism. And the Osus were not many in number. But in the nineteenth century, “their numbers expanded and their status deteriorated dramatically, so that they became outcasts, feared and despised” or even abhorred.

The Osu caste system is a societal institution borne out of a primitive traditional belief system colored by superstition, and propagated by ignorance. It is absurd to categorize a human as a sub-human being.

Way Out
In 1950 the then Eastern Nigerian Colonial Legislative Council under the leadership of the late Owelle of Onitsha, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, passed a legislation that outlawed the Osu caste system. The law made it a criminal offense to discriminate against anyone on the basis of the Osu caste system. But the law, like other laws in Nigeria, was rendered impotent, as it was not enforced. But thank God for the kind of vibrant, near-independent judicary we have today.

Set an Example
If you are ready to go the whole hog in this relationship, then get yourself a good tape recorder and a good lawyer and somebody is on his way to jail.

Crime › Re: My Nigerian Boyfriend May Be A Drug Baron by youngies(m): 6:27pm On Apr 10, 2007
adeboo:
No i don't think he is a baron. The people telling you that don't realy approve of your relationship with him - don't be scared.

He may be involved in other kinds of businesses.
Answer these questions-

- does he work?
- how often does he travel?
- is he constantly receiving phone calls?
- does he always have loads of cash around?

He may be genuinely involved in a legite business and he may not be.

I personally don't think he is from the sounds of what you have said.
Yes, you need to answer the above questions. Then follow it up by telling him that you are interested in knowing about his business. Tell him you want know where he buys his cars and who his customers are in Naija. Then watch but closely his reactions. Don't miss even the minutest details like scratching his eye lashes, that might be the clue you are looking for
