💡Pro Travel Tips
"Hold your change o!": Always have small denominations (₦50, ₦100, ₦200) ready, as conductors often claim not to have change for larger notes.
Peak Hour Strategy: Avoid travelling during morning (6-9 AM) and evening (4-7 PM) rush hours if possible, as traffic can significantly prolong your journey on Ikorodu Road and through Oshodi.
Confirm Dropping Point: Before boarding, clearly tell the conductor your specific destination (e.g., "Oshodi, I'm dropping at Terminal 2" or "Ikeja Under Bridge, I'm going to Computer Village") to ensure clarity.
