From your exact location in Lekki Phase 2, find a local bus (Keke Napep or smaller Danfo) heading towards Abraham Adesanya Roundabout or Ajah Bus Stop.
At Abraham Adesanya or Ajah Bus Stop, board a commercial bus (Danfo) clearly marked 'CMS' or 'Obalende'. This will be a long ride through the Lekki-Epe Expressway and then into the city center.
Upon alighting at CMS or Obalende, locate the bus park for buses heading towards 'Costain' or 'National Stadium'. Board one of these.
From Costain Bus Stop, you'll easily find numerous commercial buses (Danfo) with 'Mile 2' boldly written on their front. Confirm with the conductor before boarding.
If you cannot find a direct bus to Mile 2 from Costain, take one heading to 'Oshodi'. From Oshodi Transport Interchange, you will find direct buses to Mile 2.
Always carry small denominations (₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes) as conductors rarely have change for large notes.
Be extra vigilant with your belongings, especially in crowded bus stops and while boarding/alighting.
To minimize travel time, aim to depart early in the morning (before 6:30 AM) or during off-peak hours (between 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM).
The estimated total travel time is around 2 hours and 5 minutes (7529 seconds) under ideal traffic conditions. However, due to Lagos's unpredictable traffic, especially on major routes and bridges, it can easily extend to 3-4 hours during peak periods.
No, there are no direct commercial buses that ply the entire route from Lekki Phase 2 to Mile 2. The journey requires at least 3-4 bus changes using the standard Danfo option, or a combination of ride-hailing and BRT for the alternative route.
While major roads are generally busy, it's advisable to complete your journey before late evening (e.g., by 8 PM) if using commercial buses, due to reduced frequency and security concerns. Ride-hailing services are generally safer for night travel, but always exercise caution and share your trip details with a trusted contact.
