Moving from Fadeyi to Kirikiri takes you from the central Ikorodu Road axis down to the industrial and residential hub of Kirikiri near Apapa. Because of heavy container trucks, port traffic, and road construction, this route can be very unpredictable. Commuters must choose between taking commercial buses (Danfo), connecting through Mile 2, or using ride-hailing apps, while keeping a close eye on the daily traffic build-up at major bottlenecks.
Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
To beat the worst morning gridlock, leave Fadeyi between 6:00 AM and 6:30 AM. For afternoon travel, the safest off-peak window is 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. In the evening, try to head back before 4:30 PM, or wait until after 8:30 PM when the initial rush hour madness settles down.

Stand at the Fadeyi bus stop along Ikorodu Road and board a yellow Danfo bus heading to Mile 2.
Stay in the bus as it drives past Ojuelegba, Stadium, and joins the Apapa-Oshodi expressway, then disembark at Mile 2 Oke (the upper bridge area).
Walk down from the bridge to the terminal underneath and board another short-distance Danfo or a Keke (tricycle) heading to Berger Suya or Wilmer.
Drop at Berger Suya bus stop, cross to the opposite side carefully, and enter a direct Keke or final Danfo straight into Kirikiri town.
Always enter the bus with 'change' (smaller naira notes like ₦200 and ₦500) to avoid fierce arguments with conductors who do not have balance.
Keep your window glass halfway up if you are sitting by the side, as street boys (Area Boys) can reach inside to snatch phones during slow-moving traffic.
Confirm from the conductor if the bus is going 'Direct' or if it will stop at every minor bus stop along the way.
Listen carefully to the local announcements inside the bus so you do not miss your drop-off landmark.

Safety Rating
Medium - Be very alert at major connection hubs like Mile 2 and Berger Suya, especially in the early mornings and late nights. Pickpockets operate heavily around crowded bus stops. Always keep your phone and wallet inside your bag, and avoid showing expensive items. If you are traveling late, avoid isolated footbridges and dark corners under bridges.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT lane or inner-city rail line running all the way from Fadeyi into Kirikiri. However, you can use the BRT bus from Fadeyi to get down to Costain or Stadium first, then switch to a standard Danfo bus heading towards Mile 2 and Apapa. The Lagos Blue Line Rail also passes through Mile 2, which can help you bypass land traffic if you connect from the Marina/National Theatre axis.

Bypass the Ikeja Under-Bridge corridor from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM. Traffic builds rapidly due to commercial buses loading along the main road lanes.
Areas Affected
Ikorodu Road
Due to the ongoing fuel price hikes and inflation, if you are using commercial Danfo buses and Keke, the total fare will cost between ₦1,800 and ₦2,600 for a one-way trip. If you choose to use a private ride-hailing service, it will cost you between ₦8,500 and ₦13,000 depending on the time of day and traffic conditions.
It is not highly recommended to travel this route past 9:00 PM if you are using public transport. Major transit joints like Mile 2 under-bridge and Berger Suya can become unsafe, with higher risks of 'one-chance' criminal buses and bag snatching. If you must travel late, use a verified ride-hailing car and keep your family updated on your live location.
The best trick is to avoid standard buses that pass through the main highway when truck traffic is locked. Instead, find buses that use inner community links, or use a combination of Keke and walking for short distances when the road is completely blocked by tankers near Berger Suya.
No, Keke cannot travel the entire distance because they are strictly banned from operating on major highways like Ikorodu Road and the Oshodi-Apapa Expressway. You can only use Keke for the final legs of your trip, specifically from Mile 2 or Berger Suya inside into Kirikiri town.
