Transcript:
Prayer for Igbo Land:
We are gathered here today to thank Chukwu for the work we did has yielded good produce. The work we did was that we cut yam, took some of it and planted in the soil. Few months later, it grew and produced bigger yams.

In our presence today, we have Oji n'ato (3 Kola nuts), Nzu (white chalk), Ego Oji (kola nut money), Ose Oji (alligator pepper), Mmaya (drinks), Ewu (goat), Efi (cow) and Ji (yam).

As we prepare this new yam into pounded yam, served with soup, we pray that as we eat it every sickness in our bodies shall leave.

As we eat this new yam, new things shall happen in our lives.

It shall be well with the Igbos on Eke, Oye, Afor and Nkwo.

Peace, love and progress must be in Igbo land.

No evil shall befall the Igbos. May the enemies of Igbo repent and embrace peace.

Chukwu (God), You are the One we pray to. We pray to You on Eke, Oye, Afor and Nkwo. We call on you Chukwu of our forefathers Eri, Gad and Abiama (Abraham).

Igbo land shall have peace. May we follow the right path.
