From Abule Oja, take a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) or a local 'Danfo' (yellow bus) going towards Yaba Bus Stop or Oyingbo.
At Yaba Bus Stop or Oyingbo, locate the BRT terminal. Board a BRT bus heading to 'CMS' or 'TBS' (Tafawa Balewa Square). This route uses dedicated BRT lanes for part of the journey.
From CMS/TBS, find the bus park for buses going to 'Ajah' or 'Abraham Adesanya'. These are typically large 'Danfo' buses or smaller 'Hummer' buses.
Upon arrival at Ajah Bus Stop or Abraham Adesanya, take another 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' specifically going into Lekki Phase 2. Confirm with the driver that they are going inside Lekki Phase 2.
BRT is generally more comfortable and predictable for the mainland-to-island leg.
Keep your valuables secure, especially in crowded buses and bus stops.
Always confirm destination with the conductor/driver before boarding to avoid being dropped off at the wrong place.
It is generally not advisable to travel this route late at night using public transport due to increased security risks and reduced availability of vehicles. If unavoidable, consider a trusted ride-hailing service or private arrangement for better safety.
For 'Danfo' and 'Keke Napep', space is limited. You can usually carry a small backpack or a medium-sized bag on your lap. For larger luggage, you might need to pay for an extra seat or consider a private taxi if your luggage is substantial.
No, there are no direct public buses (Danfo or BRT) that ply the entire route from Abule Oja to Lekki Phase 2. You will always need to make at least two to three changes.
The best way is to travel during off-peak hours (very early morning or late morning/mid-day). Utilizing BRT for the mainland-to-island leg can also help bypass some traffic due to dedicated lanes.
