Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Kuchigoro, make your way to a major road junction or shared taxi park. Look for vehicles ('Araba' - usually sedans like Toyota Camry/Corolla) heading towards Katampe, Mabushi, or Maitama.
Board a shared taxi. Confirm with the driver that they are going towards Katampe. Be prepared for the driver to pick up and drop off other passengers along the way.
The taxi will typically depart right on an unnamed local road, turn right onto another unnamed road, then turn right to join the Umaru Musa Yar'Adua Expressway. It will then proceed, navigating various off-ramps and merges, continuing on Umaru Musa Yar'Adua Expressway.
The route continues by forking left onto Constitution Avenue, then merging onto Nnamdi Azikiwe Expressway (Ring Road 1). The driver will follow this major expressway towards Katampe.
From Nnamdi Azikiwe Expressway, the taxi will take an off-ramp right onto an unnamed road, which then leads straight onto Yemi Osinbajo Boulevard, taking you directly into Katampe.
Alight at a convenient drop-off point in Katampe. You may need to take a short Keke Napep (tricycle) or motorcycle ('Okada') ride to your final destination within Katampe, especially if it's off the main road.
