Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) and late evenings (after 8:00 PM) are best to avoid heavy traffic. Mid-day (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) can also be less congested. Peak hours are 6:30 AM - 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. This route is generally safe during the day, but as with all Lagos travel, always be aware of your surroundings. Avoid isolated bus stops late at night. 'One-chance' incidents are rare on this specific well-trafficked corridor but general Lagos caution applies.
BRT / Rail / Water
No direct BRT or rail service connects Lekki Phase 1 directly to Sanusi Fafunwa. While BRT buses operate on dedicated lanes on the Lekki-Epe Expressway, they do not go into the inner streets of Victoria Island.

From your location in Lekki Phase 1, walk or take a Keke Napep to a major bus stop on Admiralty Way or Lekki 1st Roundabout. Look for buses going to Victoria Island.
Board a 'straight' Danfo bus heading to Victoria Island (VI) via the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge. Confirm with the conductor that it's going to 'VI' or 'Ozumba Mbadiwe'.
Alight at the bus stop closest to Sanusi Fafunwa Street on Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue (e.g., near Eko Hotel or Law School).
From there, you can walk a short distance (about 5-10 minutes) or take another local bus/Keke Napep directly to Sanusi Fafunwa Street.
Always ask the conductor 'S'o n lo Sanusi Fafunwa?' (Are you going to Sanusi Fafunwa?) or 'S'o n lo VI?' (Are you going to VI?) before boarding.
Have exact change ready to avoid issues with conductors, especially for short trips.
During peak hours, buses might be full; be prepared to stand or wait a bit longer for a less crowded option.
Travel at night is generally safe on this well-lit and busy corridor, especially if you stick to main roads and established bus stops. However, it's always advisable to be cautious, avoid isolated areas, and use common sense like staying alert and not displaying valuables.
To save money, try to walk short distances instead of taking a Keke Napep, especially within Lekki Phase 1 or the final stretch in Victoria Island. Also, try to board 'straight' buses that minimize transfers, as each transfer usually incurs a new fare.
Traffic is very common in Lagos. The best approach is patience. Have a book, music, or podcast to pass the time. If you're on a tight schedule, consider leaving much earlier or using a less congested route if real-time traffic information suggests an alternative.
Key bus stops in Lekki Phase 1 where you can easily find buses to Victoria Island include Lekki 1st Roundabout, Admiralty Way junction, and Ikate Bus Stop (which is on the Lekki-Epe Expressway, just outside Lekki Phase 1).
