Lekki Phase 2 Estate Gate / Abraham Adesanya Roundabout
From the main gate of Lekki Phase 2, board a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) heading towards 'Ajah Roundabout' or 'Abraham Adesanya'. Confirm with the conductor.
Ajah Jubilee Bridge / Chisco Bus Stop
Alight at Ajah Bus Stop. From there, look for a Danfo specifically going towards 'CMS' or 'Obalende'. Inform the conductor you're dropping at 'Chisco Bus Stop' or 'Jakande Market'.
Jakande Shoprite / Maroko Bus Stop
At Chisco Bus Stop or Jakande, you'll need to board another Danfo (if you didn't get a direct one) or a shared mini-van (korope) heading towards 'CMS' or 'Obalende'. Tell the conductor you're dropping at 'Maroko Bus Stop' (just before the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge junction).

Alight at Maroko Bus Stop. You might need to cross the road. From here, look for 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) or a local 'Okada' (motorcycle taxi, if available/permitted) that goes into Oniru. Specify your destination within Oniru, e.g., 'The Palms Mall' or 'City of David'.

💡Pro Travel Tips
Always confirm the fare ('Ego ke?') with the Danfo conductor before boarding to avoid disputes, as prices can fluctuate.
Be mindful of your belongings, especially in crowded bus stops and during transfers. Keep valuables out of sight.
Travel during off-peak hours (mid-day, late morning, early afternoon) if possible, as the Lekki-Epe Expressway is notorious for heavy traffic during rush hours.
