Ejirin is Under Which Local Government in Lagos – LGA, Direction & More

If you are starting your journey from central Lagos areas:

• From CMS/Marina: You would typically take a bus heading towards Ajah or Lekki-Epe Expressway. From Ajah, you can then connect to a direct bus to Epe, and from Epe, take a local taxi (keke Napep or motorcycle) or another bus to Ejirin. Alternatively, some long-distance buses might go directly to Epe from CMS.
• From Yaba/Oshodi: Your best bet is to find a direct bus to Epe. These buses are usually available at major parks like Yaba or Oshodi. Once you reach Epe town, Ejirin is just a short trip away. You can easily find local transport (taxis, Keke Napep, or motorcycles) from Epe to Ejirin.

From Ikorodu

For travelers coming from Ikorodu, the route to Ejirin is fairly straightforward but might involve a transfer:

• Take a direct bus from Ikorodu Garage to Epe. This is a common route, and you'll find plenty of vehicles.
• Once in Epe, Ejirin is a well-known destination, and you can easily get a local taxi, Keke Napep, or motorcycle to take you there.

From Lekki/Ajah

If you are starting from the Lekki-Ajah axis, you are already on the right track:

• From Ajah (Abraham Adesanya Roundabout or Ajiwe bus stop), you will find buses or shared taxis heading directly to Epe. The journey is along the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
• Upon reaching Epe, Ejirin is a very short distance away, easily accessible by local transport.

The journey to Ejirin is scenic, particularly as you approach Epe, with views of the lagoon and surrounding greenery. However, traffic can be a factor, especially on the Lekki-Epe Expressway during peak hours.
