From your location in Lekki Phase 1, get a Danfo going to Ajah. Look for buses at the Lekki Phase 1 gate or Admiralty Way roundabout.
Alight at Ajah Under Bridge or Ajah Bus Stop. From there, find another Danfo heading towards Awoyaya or Epe. These buses are usually available directly at the bus stop.
Tell the driver or conductor you are going to Awoyaya. They will drop you at the Awoyaya bus stop or Awoyaya roundabout.
Always confirm the destination with the conductor before boarding to avoid confusion.
Have exact change ready, especially for Danfo trips, to avoid arguments with conductors.
During peak hours, buses might load slowly or be very crowded, so be prepared for some waiting time.
