From your starting point in Lekki, take a local Danfo or Keke to the nearest BRT bus stop along Lekki-Epe Expressway or Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue.
Board a BRT bus heading towards CMS or Obalende. CMS is often a better central hub for connecting to mainland routes.
At CMS, locate the BRT terminal for buses traveling towards Oshodi or Iyana-Ipaja. If no direct BRT to Iyana-Ipaja, take one to Oshodi.
From Oshodi (specifically around Terminal 3 or PWC bus stop), find a Danfo bus that goes directly to Ahmadiyya. These buses typically pass through Agege Motor Road and Iyana-Ipaja.

Best Time to Travel
To significantly reduce travel time, depart very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or during the late morning (after 10:00 AM). Avoid the evening rush hour (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) for outbound travel from the island to the mainland, as traffic can add hours to your journey.
Safety Rating
Medium. Major routes are generally safe during daylight hours. However, 'one-chance' incidents can occur on less crowded routes or when traveling late at night.
