From Lekki Phase 2, take a Danfo bus going towards Ajah Underbridge or Ajah Bus Stop.
At Ajah Underbridge, look for Danfo buses heading to Obalende. Confirm with the conductor before boarding.
From Obalende, find a Danfo bus going to Yaba or direct to Abule Oja. If a direct bus to Abule Oja is not available, take a bus to Yaba and then a short Keke Napep or Danfo from there.
To save money, you can enter 'short-trip' buses that stop at intermediate points if you're comfortable changing frequently. However, for a long journey like this, direct buses to major hubs like Obalende are usually more efficient.
Always confirm the destination and fare with the conductor before boarding to avoid misunderstandings.
Keep your belongings secure, especially in crowded buses and at bus stops to prevent pickpocketing.
It is generally not advisable to travel very late at night using public transport due to increased security risks, including 'one-chance' incidents. If you must travel at night, try to do so earlier in the evening and stick to well-lit, busy routes.
To avoid traffic, plan your journey during off-peak hours (mid-morning or early afternoon). Also, consider using the BRT for the Ajah-CMS leg, as its dedicated lanes can help bypass some congestion.
Yes, to use the BRT, you generally need a BRT card. However, at major terminals, you can often find people willing to tap their cards for you in exchange for cash, usually at a slightly higher rate than the official fare. It's more convenient to have your own card if you'll be using BRT regularly.
'One-chance' refers to a criminal tactic where individuals posing as public transport operators (e.g., Danfo drivers or private car owners offering lifts) pick up passengers, only to rob them or worse. Always be cautious, especially when a vehicle seems unusually empty or the passengers look suspicious.
