At Oshodi Bus Stop (or Maryland if you went that route), alight and ask for buses going directly to Ajah. If direct buses are scarce, take a bus to CMS or Obalende instead.
If you took a bus to CMS or Obalende, alight there and find buses specifically going to Ajah Bus Stop. These will take you across the Third Mainland Bridge to the Island and then towards Ajah.

Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning/early afternoon (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) to avoid peak hour traffic. Avoid traveling between 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM if possible, as traffic can be severe.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport is generally safe, but 'one-chance' incidents (robberies by criminals posing as public transport operators) can occur. Be vigilant, especially when traveling alone or at night. Always board buses at designated, busy bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for significant portions of this route, offering a more structured and often faster alternative to regular yellow buses (Danfo). There is no direct rail link for this specific route within Lagos.
