Go to Jakande Gate bus stop and board a straight commercial bus (Danfo) or Keke heading to Cele Bus Stop.
Drop at Cele Bus Stop, cross the pedestrian bridge safely to the other side of the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway, and look for buses going to Mile 2.
Drop at Mile 2 Oke (the upper bridge), then take a short walk down to the park where you will enter a short-distance Danfo or Keke going towards Oshodi/Mile 2 layout down to Coker.
Board the final bus heading down the Badagry Expressway corridor and tell the conductor you will drop at Coker Bus Stop.
Always hold your smaller change (called change or wazo) in your hand before you enter the bus to avoid fights with the conductor.
Keep your bag in front of you and zip it well when walking around Cele or Mile 2 parks.
If you are traveling late at night, make sure you enter a bus that is already full of regular passengers instead of one waiting for people in dark corners.
Ask the conductor 'Coker standard?' before you enter to make sure they are not turning back at Mile 2.

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
Isolo Road
Because of recent fuel price increases and transport inflation, a one-way trip by public Danfo bus will cost you anywhere between ₦1,500 and ₦2,200. If you prefer ride-hailing cars, plan to spend between ₦7,500 and ₦11,500 depending on the time of day and traffic conditions.
No, there is no direct BRT bus or train line connecting Jakande directly to Coker. However, you can use local Danfo buses to get to Mile 2 first, and from the Mile 2 terminal, you can easily catch the Lagos Blue Line Rail train or a BRT bus to drop you right at Coker.
The main trouble areas are the Cele Bus Stop under-bridge and the Mile 2 interchange park. Pickpockets operate heavily in these spots, especially when people are rushing to board buses during early morning hours (5:30 AM - 7:30 AM) and late evening periods (6:30 PM - 9:00 PM). Always keep your phones and wallets secure.
When it rains, the roads around Jakande Gate and Cele under-bridge flood easily. This always causes massive traffic delays. Because fewer bus drivers come out during heavy rain, the available Danfo drivers usually double or triple their prices, pushing fares up to ₦3,000 or more for the same trip.
