Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos Island is a very busy commercial area. While generally safe during the day, pickpocketing is common in crowded market areas like Nnamdi Azikiwe Street. Be extra vigilant with your belongings. 'One-chance' incidents are less common on these specific public transport routes but always remain aware of your surroundings, especially if traveling late in the evening.
