Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Ahmadiyya bus stop, board a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) or a 'mini-bus' heading towards Oshodi. Make sure to confirm 'Oshodi' as the destination with the conductor.
Alight at the Oshodi Bus Terminal. From here, locate the BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) terminal. Board a BRT bus designated for 'CMS' (Marina). BRT buses are usually red or blue and offer a more structured and often faster journey.
Upon arrival at CMS (Marina), exit the BRT terminal. Look for 'Danfos' or 'mini-buses' specifically heading to Lekki Phase 1. These buses typically ply the route via Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue. Inform the conductor of your specific bus stop within Lekki Phase 1 (e.g., Lekki Phase 1 Gate, Jakande, Elegushi).

Best Time to Travel
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, aim to depart Ahmadiyya Area very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or during off-peak hours (between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM). Traveling after 7:00 PM can also be faster, but comes with increased safety considerations.
Safety Rating
Medium. While public transport is generally safe, 'one-chance' incidents (where criminals pose as public transport operators) can occur. Always use well-marked buses from designated bus stops. Avoid boarding vehicles that are not clearly public transport or seem suspicious, especially at night. Keep your valuables secure and out of sight.
