Board a Keke (tricycle) or Korope (minibus) from Allen Avenue heading towards Ikeja Underbridge.

Remain on the bus as it navigates through Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way and connects to the Ikorodu Expressway.
Alight at Ojota Bus Stop or Ojota New Garage, depending on your final destination.
Always carry smaller denominations (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) to avoid 'change' disputes with the bus conductor.
Be mindful of your belongings at Ikeja Underbridge and Ojota Motor Park, as these are busy transit hubs.
