From the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, board a Danfo or BRT bus heading towards 'Mile 2'. Alight at the 'Mile 2' bus stop.
At Mile 2, cross over (if necessary) to the side heading towards Oshodi/Isolo. Find a Danfo heading towards 'Oshodi' or 'Isolo' via the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway. Tell the conductor you are going to 'Cele Bus Stop' and alight there.
From Cele Bus Stop, look for Danfo buses specifically going to 'Ikotun'. These buses will take you directly to Ikotun Roundabout or other major stops within Ikotun.

Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious traffic. Travel between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM for the quickest journey. Avoid peak evening hours (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible, as travel times can more than double.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, 'one-chance' incidents (where passengers are robbed in unmarked vehicles posing as public transport) are a concern in Lagos, especially when boarding unmarked vehicles or traveling late at night. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded bus stops and buses. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid displaying valuables.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available on sections of your route, particularly from Mile 2 towards Oshodi/Cele. There is no rail service currently connecting Amuwo Odofin to Ikotun.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
