From Banana Island, take a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) or a local 'Danfo' bus to Falomo or Obalende.
At Obalende, board a 'Danfo' bus heading towards Oshodi. Confirm with the conductor that it's going to Oshodi 'Under Bridge' or 'Bolade'.
From Oshodi, find a 'Danfo' bus going to Iyana-Ipaja. Look for buses loading near the Oshodi 'Agege Motor Road' axis.
At Iyana-Ipaja, take another 'Keke Napep' or a short 'Danfo' bus directly to Oko Filling. Ask for 'Oko Filling' or confirm the bus is going towards Igando, as Oko Filling is along that axis.

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 peak hour traffic. Evening travel after 7:00 PM can also be faster but carries higher safety risks.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel is generally safe, 'one-chance' incidents can occur, particularly in less crowded areas or during late hours. Always be vigilant of your belongings. LASTMA/VIO officers are frequently present at major bus stops and junctions like Falomo, Obalende, Oshodi, and Iyana-Ipaja, ensuring some level of order but also enforcing traffic rules strictly.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a viable and often faster option for the major segments of this journey (Obalende to Oshodi, and Oshodi to Iyana-Ipaja) due to dedicated lanes. There is no rail service available for this specific intra-Lagos route.
Always ask for a physical or SMS-linked waybill receipt when sending a package via Surulere couriers. This serves as your legal proof of dispatch.
