Go to the main Ejigbo Bus Stop or Jakande Junction and board a straight Danfo going to Isolo or Cele Bus Stop.
Drop at Isolo Bus Stop, walk across the road, and find the yellow buses going directly to Mushin Olosha or Oshodi.
From Mushin Olosha or Oshodi, take a final short Danfo or a small bus (Keke) heading towards Onipanu / Palmgrove along Ikorodu Road.
Always enter the bus with change (smaller naira notes) so you will not have problems with the conductor.
Keep your bag in front of you and zip it well, especially at Mushin Olosha.
Listen to what the conductor is calling before you enter to make sure the bus is not turning back halfway.
If you hear the conductor shouting 'Palmgrove straight', enter quickly because those ones are faster.
Because of the current fuel price hikes, if you are using public Danfo buses, expect to spend between ₦1,300 and ₦2,300 in total for a one-way trip. If you choose to use private ride-hailing apps, the price can range from ₦6,500 to ₦9,500 depending on the time of day.
No, it is very rare to find a direct public Danfo bus going from Ejigbo straight to Palmgrove. You will usually need to take a bus to a connecting point like Isolo, Mushin, or Oshodi first, and then take another bus to Palmgrove.
The fastest alternative is to take the Canoe Road shortcut from Ejigbo to link up with Ajao Estate, which brings you out near Oshodi. From Oshodi, you can easily find a fast bus that takes the highway straight to Palmgrove, bypassing the slow traffic inside Mushin completely.
Do not panic, but stay alert. Walk briskly and purposefully, keep your phone and money hidden inside your pockets or bag, and do not listen to strangers trying to call you. Move to well-lit areas where there are many people, and enter any available bus moving towards Ikorodu Road or a safer major bus stop immediately.

Best Time to Travel
For morning peak hours, leave Ejigbo between 5:30 AM and 6:15 AM to beat the heavy blockages at Jakande and Isolo. For afternoon off-peak travel, the best time is between 11:00 AM and 2:30 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium - Be very careful with your bags, phones, and wallets when passing through Mushin, Oshodi, and Ladipo. Keep your phone inside your bag, especially when entering or leaving a moving yellow bus (Danfo). Avoid standing alone in dark or lonely corners at night.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT or train line from Ejigbo inside. However, once you get to Oshodi or reach Ikorodu Road (near Palmgrove), you can easily enter the blue or red BRT buses that use the dedicated lanes.
