Less than 24 hours after visiting RCCG, President Jonathan on Saturday visited another church – The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministry of Pastor Lazarus Muoka – in Lagos in the continuation of his 'church visits'

As the presidential election his fast approaching, Jonathan has intensified his visits to churches. Since the year began, Jonathan has worshipped in not less than four churches in various parts of the country.
Nigerians have accused President Goodluck Jonathan of using the pulpit of the churches he visits to campaign for his 2015 presidential re-election.
Pastor Tunde Bakare of Latter Rain Assembly, once expressed his disapproval of Jonathan’s action. According to him: “Kneeling before Adeboye was a clear campaign tactic which also diminishes the president and his office.
Jonathan has signalled the the commencement of his presidential campaign by going to kneel down before Pastor Adeboye. See, I am not saying that pastors should not pray for the president but Jonathan is a symbol of an institution known as the presidency.
He cheapened the institution by prostrating before a man of God because of perceived political advantage he thinks he can get.

“By going to kneel down in the open before the pastor, the man (Jonathan) did not even recognise the dignity of his office. If it were a private thing, it is okay for you to crawl or kneel but it is a whole nation. That office has been diminished by a man who does not know the worth of it and does not deserve to stay there for one more day”
