Traveling from Lekki Phase 2 to Ijanikin in Lagos is a long journey that crosses a major part of the city, from the Lekki-Epe corridor through the Island and Mainland, ending on the Badagry Expressway. This route requires multiple changes using public transport (Danfo and BRT) and is heavily affected by Lagos' traffic patterns.

Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Lekki Phase 2, take a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) or a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) to Abraham Adesanya Roundabout or Ajah Underbridge.
At Ajah, go to the BRT terminal (look for blue buses) or find a 'Danfo' heading towards CMS or Obalende. The BRT is generally faster and more predictable for this leg.
From CMS Bus Stop or Obalende Bus Stop, take another BRT or 'Danfo' that is going to Mile 2. The BRT route is usually more direct and less prone to diversions.
At Mile 2 Bus Stop, look for a 'Danfo' heading towards the Badagry axis. Confirm with the conductor that it is going to Ijanikin or a point very close to it (e.g., Ojo Barracks, Iyana Iba), from where you can take a short 'Keke' ride.

Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is early morning (before 6:00 AM) to beat the first rush, or late morning/mid-day (between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM) to avoid major peak hour congestion. Avoid traveling late in the evening due to increased safety concerns and significantly longer travel times.
Safety Rating
Medium. While largely safe during the day, the route involves busy urban areas. The Mile 2 and Badagry Expressway axis, especially at night, has a higher risk of 'one-chance' incidents. Always board vehicles at designated, well-lit bus stops and avoid empty or near-empty buses. Keep your belongings secure, especially in crowded areas.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a very useful and often faster public transport option for significant parts of this journey, specifically from Ajah to CMS/Obalende and from CMS/Obalende to Mile 2. There is no rail service available for this specific intrastate route within Lagos.
If traveling between Lagos and mainland extensions via Berger, plan departures before 6:30 AM or after 8:30 PM to bypass heavy bottlenecks at the outward police posts.
