Media personality Isaac Fayose, the brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose, has taken to social media to express his displeasure with Nigeria’s judiciary system, following what he described as an unusually swift judgment in the ongoing case between activist VeryDarkMan and renowned lawyer Femi Falana and his son, music star Falz.
In a video shared on his social media handle, Fayose criticized the judiciary for delivering what he believes is one of the fastest verdicts in Nigeria’s history, while many other cases, including those affecting ordinary citizens, remain pending for years. He expressed frustration over the rapid progress of the VeryDarkMan case, questioning why the judiciary prioritized it over more significant cases that have been languishing in court.
Fayose, citing his own legal battle, gave the example of his tenants who have lived in one of his properties for over two years without paying rent, yet the court has failed to even sit on the case despite it being filed long ago. He also referenced unresolved political cases involving Rivers State politicians who defected to the APC, noting that these cases have not been addressed in court, despite being open for a long period.
In a tone that blended frustration with humor, Fayose suggested that the VeryDarkMan case should be entered into the Guinness World Records as the fastest court ruling in Nigeria’s history, highlighting the glaring contrast between this case and others that remain unresolved.

The controversy began when activist VeryDarkMan released an audio recording of popular cross-dresser Bobrisky, in which Bobrisky allegedly claimed to have paid money to the EFCC to drop some cases against him. In the same voice note, Bobrisky reportedly mentioned Femi Falana’s name, which led to Falana serving a defamation notice to VeryDarkMan, demanding a retraction. When the activist refused to retract the claims, the case escalated to court, where a ruling was delivered, slamming VeryDarkMan with a ₦50 million fine.
Concluding his remarks, Isaac Fayose expressed concern over the judiciary’s apparent bias, suggesting that the system seems to favor the wealthy and powerful while neglecting the needs of ordinary citizens. He lamented that justice, in this instance, may not be accessible to those without influence or financial means.
