Walk or take a short Keke Napep (tricycle) to the main Alausa bus stops if you're deep within the Secretariat or Ikeja City Mall environs.
Board a 'Danfo' (commercial bus) specifically heading towards 'Ogba' or 'Agidingbi/Omole' as these routes often pass through Ogba. Confirm with the conductor.
Alight at the Ogba main bus stop (popularly known as 'Ogba bus stop') or at a closer point to your specific destination within Ogba (e.g., Excellence Hotel, Aguda).
