Best Time to Travel
To beat the worst traffic, leave Lekki before 6:00 AM for morning trips. For afternoon travel, move between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM. If you are returning in the evening, try to wait until after 8:30 PM to avoid the heavy Oshodi rush.
Safety Rating
Medium - Hold your bags tightly at Oshodi Interchange and Cele Bus Stop, especially in the evening. Keep your phone inside your bag when boarding a Danfo. Beware of 'one-chance' buses at night; only enter buses inside the main garages.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT lane or train from Lekki to Ajao Estate. However, you can use the standard BRT buses from Obalende/CMS to Oshodi, and you can use the Red Line Rail if you connect through nearby stations like Mushin or Oshodi for other parts of your trip.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
