To beat the morning rush, leave Ijegun between 5:30 AM and 6:15 AM. If you miss this window, wait until the off-peak period from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. For evening return trips, avoid Oshodi heading back to Cele between 5:00 PM and 8:30 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium - Be very careful with your phones and wallets at Cele Bus Stop, Oshodi, and Mushin. Avoid holding your phone carelessly near the bus windows, especially during slow-moving traffic or at night. Pickpockets are common in these crowded areas.
