Chapter 9 of The Gospel of Aid: The Aid Prayer

In Chapter 9 of the Gospel of Aid, the Nigerian author and satirist Elnathan John writes:

CHAPTER 9: The Aid Prayer

  1. You must pray then this way: Our donors, who art abroad, hallowed be thy purse. Thy aid come in dollars and pounds.
  2. Thy will be done in our countries, as promoted by Bono
  3. Give us this day, our yearly funding
  4. And lead us not into self-reliance
  5. But deliver us from our selves
  6. For thine are dollars, the pounds and the euros, forever and ever. Amen

The rest of the “Gospel” in all its hilarity is here.

Have a blessed Tuesday.
