Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From your specific location within Lekki Phase 1, find a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a local mini-bus to take you to the major Lekki-Epe Expressway.
At the Lekki-Epe Expressway (e.g., near the Lekki Phase 1 Main Gate), board a yellow commercial bus (Danfo) clearly marked or announced as heading to 'Obalende'.
Disembark at the Obalende Bus Terminus. From there, locate another commercial bus heading directly towards 'Idumota' or 'Lagos Island' (confirming it goes via Idumota).
Inform the bus conductor you are dropping at 'Idumota Market' or 'Idumota Under Bridge'. They will usually alert you when you arrive.
Once you alight at Idumota, depending on your precise destination within the market area, you may need to walk a short distance or take a local motorcycle (Okada) for a very short hop if available and safe.
