Traveling from Anthony to Ketu in Lagos, Nigeria, is a common commute along the busy Ikorodu Road corridor. The most cost-effective option is by commercial bus (Danfo), offering direct routes. For greater comfort and convenience, ride-hailing services are readily available, albeit at a higher cost. Be prepared for varying travel times due to Lagos's notorious traffic, especially during peak hours.

Head to the nearest major bus stop along Ikorodu Road in Anthony. The most prominent is the Anthony Bus Stop itself, but smaller feeder stops exist.
Look for commercial buses (Danfo) with 'Ketu', 'Mile 12', or 'Iyana Oworo' written on their front. Confirm with the conductor that they are going to Ketu Bus Stop.
Board the bus and alight at Ketu Bus Stop. This is a major hub, and from here, you can walk or take a short Keke Napep (tricycle) or Okada (motorcycle taxi) to your final destination within Ketu.
Avoid peak hours (typically 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM) if possible, as traffic on Ikorodu Road significantly increases travel time and can lead to higher fares.
Always have smaller denominations of Naira (₦50, ₦100, ₦200) for bus fares, as conductors frequently claim not to have change for larger notes.
Keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded buses and bus stops. Pickpocketing can occur.
The most budget-friendly option is the commercial bus (Danfo). A direct bus ride typically ranges from ₦350 to ₦500, though this can fluctuate based on traffic conditions and time of day.
Under normal traffic conditions, the journey takes approximately 20-45 minutes by bus or ride-hailing. During peak hours (morning and evening rush), expect travel times to extend to 60-90 minutes or more due to heavy traffic on Ikorodu Road.
Yes, ride-hailing services like Bolt, Uber, and LagRide have good driver availability in the Anthony area and offer a reliable, comfortable, door-to-door experience to Ketu.
Generally, it is safe to travel by Danfo. However, as with any crowded public transport, it is crucial to remain vigilant, keep your personal belongings secure, and avoid openly displaying valuables.
While Keke Napeps are useful for short distances, it is not practical or cost-effective to use one for the entire Anthony to Ketu route. It would likely involve multiple transfers and be significantly more expensive and time-consuming than a direct bus or ride-hailing service.
