This guide helps you move easily from Kirikiri in Apapa area to Iyana School along the Iba-Obadore road. The journey requires moving out of Kirikiri to the main Badagry Expressway, heading towards Mile 2 or Volks, and then connecting to Iba road. Because of the heavy fuel price hikes and transport fare inflation across Lagos, prices are higher than usual, so you must prepare your pocket.

Enter a Keke (tricycle) or small Danfo from your street in Kirikiri heading out to Berger Suya or Mile 2.
From Mile 2 or Berger Suya, enter a big yellow Danfo bus going down Badagry Expressway and tell the conductor you will drop at Volks or Iyana Iba.
Cross over to the road leading to Iba/Igando and enter another Danfo or Keke going towards Iyana School.
Stay on the vehicle as it drives down Iba road and drop off at your final destination.
Always hold change (smaller Naira notes) to give the conductor so you do not get delayed or mixed up in a 'change partner' argument.
Keep your smartphones and wallets securely inside your zipped bags instead of back pockets when walking around Mile 2 or Iyana Iba.
If a bus driver says 'No change, enter with your β¦1,000 or β¦5,000', do not enter unless you have the exact transport fare.
Look at the tyres and general condition of the Danfo before entering, as old broken-down buses frequently spoil on this highway, delaying your trip.

Safety Rating
Medium - You must be very careful of your belongings at major junctions like Mile 2, Alakija, and Iyana Iba, especially in the early morning and late night. Pickpockets operate heavily around crowded commercial spaces.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT bus or blue/red line rail corridor that goes inside Kirikiri or directly down Iba Road to Iyana School. However, you can see BRT buses and the Blue Line rail terminal at Mile 2 if you choose to route through there.

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
Kirikiri Road
Fares have gone up drastically due to the continuous rise in petrol prices in Nigeria, along with high daily ticketing fees collected from drivers by transport unions at every stop.
No, you cannot get a direct commercial Danfo bus that loads from inside Kirikiri town straight to Iyana School. You must break the journey by heading out to the Badagry Expressway first.
It is quite risky because the dark sections of the Badagry Expressway around Maza Maza, Alakija, and the under-bridge areas are known spots for traffic robbers and pickpockets at night.
If you are in a rush and do not have heavy bags, you can safely drop from the bus, walk across the pedestrian bridge to a clearer spot, and take a commercial motorcycle (Okada) or Keke to continue your journey.
