From Abattoir Agege, locate a Keke Napep or a local 'Kabu-Kabu' shared taxi heading towards Agege Pen Cinema. These are usually abundant around the abattoir entrance and surrounding areas.
At Agege Pen Cinema, cross to the side where buses board for Oshodi. Board a commercial bus (Danfo) clearly marked 'Oshodi'. Confirm with the conductor that it's going to Oshodi Under Bridge or Oshodi Terminal.
From Oshodi, specifically from the Agege Motor Road side or the Oshodi BRT terminal, look for buses heading to Yaba. These buses are frequent. Confirm 'Yaba Bus Stop' before boarding.
From Yaba Bus Stop, Alagomeji is a short distance away. You can either take a Keke Napep directly to Alagomeji Bus Stop (along Herbert Macaulay Way) or a short commercial bus if available on that specific route.
**Peak Hours Alert:** Avoid traveling during morning (6:30 AM - 9:30 AM) and evening (4:00 PM - 7:30 PM) peak hours, as traffic can significantly increase travel time and sometimes fare.
**Confirm Fares:** Always confirm the fare with the conductor before boarding, especially if you're unsure or it's your first time on a route.
**Safety First:** Keep your belongings secure, particularly in crowded bus stops and while boarding/alighting.
**Ride-Hailing Alternative:** For a more comfortable and direct journey, consider ride-hailing services like Bolt or Uber. This will be significantly more expensive (₦4,000 - ₦7,000 depending on traffic) but offers convenience.
**Cash is King:** Most commercial transport in Lagos operates on a cash-only basis. Have smaller denominations handy (₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes).

The fastest way, avoiding multiple transfers and potential delays, is by using a ride-hailing service like Bolt or Uber. While more expensive, it offers a direct, air-conditioned ride. Alternatively, traveling outside of peak hours dramatically speeds up public transport options.
While major routes are generally active, it's advisable to complete your journey on public transport before 9:00 PM. After this, public transport becomes less frequent, and taking Keke Napeps late at night in certain areas might pose a slight security risk. Ride-hailing is recommended for late-night travel for added safety and convenience.
