Go to a major interstate motor park in Makurdi, Benue State. Recommended parks include the Benue Links Terminal (along Otukpo Road) or Peace Mass Transit Terminal (along Gboko Road).
Book your ticket to Kano. Most buses will drop passengers at a major terminal in Kano city, from where you'll connect to Wudil. Confirm the drop-off point. Luxury buses or Hiace buses are common.
Depart from Makurdi. The journey will start by connecting to IORCHIA AYU ROAD, then the A3 (Makurdi-Jos Road).
Travel through Lafia (Nasarawa State) and continue on the A3 towards Jos (Plateau State). Buses usually have a short rest stop in Lafia or before Jos.
After Jos, the route transitions onto the A236, which merges into the Kaduna-Jos Highway, leading towards Kaduna (Kaduna State). You may experience security checkpoints along this stretch.
Pass through parts of Kaduna State, then make a turn onto Rahama to Kafin Mayaki Road, followed by the Rano - Sumaila road. These are local roads connecting to the main highway to Kano.
Finally, join the Kano-Maiduguri Highway which will lead you into Kano city and towards Wudil. The bus will likely terminate at a major park in Kano, such as Unguwa Uku Motor Park or Sabon Gari Motor Park.
From the Kano terminal, take a local taxi or 'Keke NAPEP' (tricycle) to Wudil. Wudil is located southeast of Kano city, directly on the Kano-Maiduguri Highway.
