Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State is a very happy man at the moment: “This judgment is, in its totality, a welcome development. It is not victory to me alone but also to all other Nigerians whose rights to hold property, to fair hearing, liberty and the pursuit of legitimate goals have been viciously assaulted by the Muhammadu Buhari administration.”

“I salute the courage of Justice Taiwo and encourage all other Nigerian judges to stand firm as defenders of the rights of the citizens against creeping fascism.”
