🚌

📍 Origin

Major interstate motor parks in Benin City include GIGM Transport Terminal (Sapele Road or by Ring Road) and GUO Transport (Sapele Road). Head to one of these parks. It's best to book your ticket in advance, either online through the company's website or directly at the park. Clearly state your destination as Hadejia.

Fare₦500 - ₦1,000 (for local transport to park)

Getting to the Motor Park and Booking Your Ticket:

🚐

Transfer 1

You will typically board either a luxury bus (with air conditioning and more space, but slower to fill up) or a shared Sienna minivan (faster, but potentially more cramped). Confirm your luggage is safely loaded and tagged. The bus usually departs once it's full, often very early in the morning.

Boarding and Departure:

🚐

Transfer 2

Your journey will commence by exiting Benin City, primarily via Akpakpava Road and then joining the Benin-Auchi Road, which is part of the major A2 highway. You will pass through towns like Auchi, Okene, and then reach Lokoja, the capital of Kogi State. Lokoja is a common first major stop for passengers to stretch, use restrooms, and buy refreshments. From Lokoja, the bus continues north, navigating through or around Abuja, often using the Nnamdi Azikwe Way or Eastern By Pass. The route proceeds through Kaduna, Zaria, and Kano before finally heading to Hadejia. Expect several short stops along the way.
