From your exact location in Lekki, take a local 'Danfo' bus or 'Keke Napep' to a major BRT corridor bus stop like 'Lekki First Gate' or 'Maroko Bus Stop'.
At the BRT bus stop, board a BRT bus heading towards 'CMS' or 'Obalende'. Inform the conductor you are going towards Victoria Island (VI).
Alight at the 'Law School' BRT stop or 'Eko Hotel Roundabout' BRT stop on Ozumba Mbadiwe. From there, Sanusi Fafunwa Street is a short distance away.
From the BRT stop, you can either walk (about 10-15 minutes) or take a short 'Danfo' bus or 'Keke Napep' ride specifically going to Sanusi Fafunwa Street or a nearby landmark like 'Silverbird Galleria' or 'Adeola Odeku'.
BRT buses are generally faster as they use dedicated lanes, especially during peak hours.
Ensure you have a BRT card or cash for the BRT fare, as some terminals only accept cards.
Confirm the BRT destination (CMS/Obalende) to ensure it's going through Victoria Island.
Without traffic, about 15-25 minutes. During peak hours (6 AM - 9 AM and 4 PM - 7 PM), it can take 45 minutes to over 90 minutes.
LASTMA and VIO are often seen around major intersections on Ozumba Mbadiwe, Adeola Odeku, and Ahmadu Bello Way, especially for traffic violations and vehicle checks. Be sure to follow traffic rules if driving yourself.
While Sanusi Fafunwa and Victoria Island are generally well-lit and busy, it's advisable to be cautious when traveling late at night. Stick to main roads, avoid isolated areas, and consider traveling with others if possible.
While ride-hailing apps like Bolt or Uber are available, this guide focuses on public transport options for cost-effectiveness and local experience. They are an alternative if budget isn't a primary concern.
Expect significant delays and potential flooding. Public transport might be harder to find or more expensive. It's best to postpone non-essential travel during heavy downpours.
