Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos is a bustling city, and while the route itself isn't known for extreme insecurity, travelers should exercise caution. 'One-chance' bus robberies are a concern, especially when boarding buses from isolated spots or late at night. Be vigilant of your belongings, especially in crowded areas like Oshodi, Yaba, and Obalende. Avoid night travel if possible, particularly on public transport.
