From your location in Lekki Phase 1, find a Keke Napep or a Danfo heading towards the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge or Falomo.
Tell the driver you are going to 'Falomo Under Bridge' or 'Ikoyi'. They will cross the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge and drop you off at Falomo Under Bridge.
At Falomo Under Bridge, look for another Keke Napep or a short-trip Danfo going into Ikoyi. Tell the driver you need to get to 'Ribadu Road'. Ribadu Road is off Awolowo Road, so ensure the Keke/Danfo is heading in that general direction or will drop you close enough to walk.
For Keke Napep, you might need to negotiate the fare, especially if you are the only passenger or if it's a 'charter' (sole ride).
Always confirm the destination with the driver before boarding, especially for Danfo, to avoid going in the wrong direction.
LASTMA/VIO are often present around Falomo and Awolowo Road. Ensure your driver is compliant to avoid delays.
The total cost for public transport (Danfo/Keke) typically ranges from ₦350 to ₦800, depending on the route and current fuel prices.
Traveling during the day is generally safe. For night travel, it's advisable to use well-lit routes and avoid being the only passenger in a Keke Napep or Danfo if possible. Always prioritize your safety.
There are no single direct public buses (like BRT) that cover the entire route. You will likely need to take at least two stages of public transport (Keke/Danfo) or a combination.
The busiest times are typically morning rush hour (6:30 AM - 9:30 AM) and evening rush hour (4:30 PM - 7:30 PM) on weekdays. Traffic can also be heavy if there are events in Ikoyi or Lekki.
