Board a Danfo or Korope (minibus) from any major bus stop in Lekki (e.g., Jakande, Chisco, or Phase 1) heading to Obalende.
At Obalende motor park, locate the section for buses calling 'Ketu / Mile 12' and board a Danfo.
Alight at Ketu bus stop and take a short walk or a Keke (tricycle) to your exact street destination in Ketu.
Keep lower denominations of Naira (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) to avoid 'change' disputes with conductors.
Traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge peaks during evening rush hours; try to travel before 4:00 PM if possible.

Lekki-Epe Expressway
Direct commercial buses from Lekki to Ketu are extremely rare. You will typically need to break your journey at Obalende, CMS, or Oshodi.
On a good day with light traffic, it takes about 60 to 90 minutes. However, during peak hours (morning and evening rushes), traffic on the Lekki-Epe Expressway and Third Mainland Bridge can extend travel time to over 2 hours.
The cheapest method is taking public transport (Danfo) from Lekki to Obalende, and then another bus from Obalende to Ketu, costing roughly between ₦1,600 and ₦2,100 in total.
