Right or Wrong? A Man of God (e.g Pa Oritsejafor) Should NOT Always Be Around The President

Sorry o, that question was not mine. It was actually the leadership of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria (CBCN) that fired at the president of Christian Association of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, expressing his displeasure towards the $9.3m smuggling scandal.

Speaking on the BBC Hausa service on behalf of the Catholic Bishops,  Archbishop Ignatius Kaigama, Archbishop of Jos and President of CBCN, accused the CAN president of smearing the image of the Christian Association of Nigeria, saying...
it was wrong for his private plane to be associated with the controversial arms deal in South Africa.

The Bishops said military aircrafts could have been conveniently used for that purpose.
“We have been watching with sadness how Oristejafor has been hobnobbing with the Presidency for long, he is dragging Christianity into the mud. It is not proper, the guilty must be punished. It is not acceptable for a Christian leader to be seen always with the President.  We in the Catholic have always picked holes in Oritsejafor’s style of leadership in CAN and we even wanted to stop attending CAN meetings at the national level” he said.

Papa is yet to react.

In as much as I want to disagree with the Bishop, I think there's nothing wrong for a president to want to be close to Mr. President

I understand that the 9.3m was a mix up, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have the right to be seen with president.

True, president jonathan is always with pastor ortisejafor anywhere he's doing anything. even when he was launching his university, he was there. even the new auditorium he was there. if thats how he attends all those events how will he run the office?
