From Lekki Phase 2, take a 'Danfo' (yellow minibus) going towards Ajah Market.
At Ajah Market, find a 'Danfo' or 'Costain' bus going to CMS/Obalende.
From CMS/TBS, take a BRT bus going to Oshodi. You will need a BRT card, which can be purchased and loaded at the BRT terminal.
At Oshodi Underbridge, cross to the side for buses heading towards Airport Road/Isolo. Take a 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) going into Ajao Estate.
Using BRT for the CMS to Oshodi leg can save significant time and offers a more comfortable ride, but requires a BRT card.
Always confirm the destination with the bus conductor before boarding, especially at busy interchanges like Ajah and Oshodi.
LASTMA and VIO are very active on the Lekki-Epe Expressway and around Oshodi; ensure your bus looks roadworthy to avoid delays.
No, BRT requires a loaded card. You can buy and load a card at any BRT terminal. The cards are reusable.
It is generally not advisable to use public 'Danfo' buses for long distances at night in Lagos due to 'one-chance' risks. If absolutely necessary, use well-known, busy bus parks and avoid isolated stops.
Bus conductors will typically shout out their destinations. Always ask 'Ajao Estate?' or 'Oshodi?' before boarding to confirm. For 'Danfo' buses, look for the destination written on the front or side of the bus.
Public 'Danfo' buses have limited space for luggage. You might need to pay extra for your bags or wait for a less crowded bus. BRT buses usually have more space.

Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel is generally safe, be aware of pickpockets in crowded buses and bus stops, especially at Oshodi. Avoid late-night public transport due to 'one-chance' risks. Always board buses at designated, well-lit bus parks.
