Some people found this improper for a monarch, insisting that the Oba should not have knelt before the pastor.
However, some argued that Adeboye was, by right, the spiritual leader to Oba Olaoye, who, before his coronation as king, was an ordained pastor of the RCCG. He was in charge of the church's branch, Jesus House, in Washington, DC.

"Even kings were answerable to prophets in the bible. They would consult prophets before taking any step. Y’all don’t need to give takes on every topic. The king in his majesty is not complaining but X influencers think they know better than the king."
@CRawkeen commented:
"What is he supposed to do here? Send the king away?"
@TheEghosa said:
"But why do you guys have a problem with how people choose to express their faith?"
@akinwale_keji commented:
"I want to believe he has not entered the secret room (ìgbàlẹ) before this picture was taken, hence he was not a king yet."
