Walk out of Alaba International Market to the main road (Ojo-Badagry Expressway). Board a yellow commercial bus (Danfo) heading towards 'Barracks' or 'Mile 2'. Confirm with the conductor that they are going towards Ojo Barracks.
Alight at Ojo Barracks Bus Stop. Look for another Danfo heading specifically to 'Mile 2 Underbridge' or just 'Mile 2'.
At Mile 2 Underbridge, you will find various buses and Keke Napeps (tricycles) going into different parts of Amuwo Odofin. Look for buses or Kekes labeled 'Festac Gate,' 'Apple Junction,' '23 Road,' or your specific Amuwo Odofin destination. Buses are generally cheaper than Kekes for this leg.
Expect potential crowds, especially during peak hours (6-9 AM, 4-8 PM).
Be mindful of your belongings, especially your phone and wallet, in crowded buses and bus stops.
Always confirm the destination and price with the conductor before boarding to avoid misunderstandings.
Keep small denominations of Naira (₦50, ₦100, ₦200, ₦500) for easy payment as conductors often have limited change.
The cheapest way is typically by using the standard commercial bus (Danfo), which involves multiple legs. The total cost is estimated to be between ₦850 and ₦1500, depending on your final destination within Amuwo Odofin and whether you use a Keke for the last mile.
The estimated travel time ranges from 45 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes (90 minutes) via commercial bus, depending heavily on traffic conditions, especially during peak hours. Ride-hailing services might be slightly faster, taking 30-60 minutes in moderate traffic.
While generally safe in Lagos, it's advisable to complete your journey before late evening (e.g., by 8 PM) when using commercial buses or shared Keke Napeps. If traveling late, ride-hailing services like Uber or Bolt are generally considered safer and more convenient, but always verify driver details and share your trip for added security.
