Moving from Okokomaiko to Korede involves crossing from the far western corridor of Lagos along the Badagry Expressway over to the mainland transit arterial networks. Due to the distance and constant road rehabilitation, commuters must use a strategic mix of standard Danfo buses, express connection cars, or local Kekes to arrive safely at Korede without getting stuck in heavy terminal gridlock.

Walk or enter a local Keke from your inside street to the main Okokomaiko Bus Stop on the Lagos-Badagry Expressway.
Board a yellow Danfo bus going straight to Mile 2. Ensure you look out for the conductors shouting 'Mile 2 direct' so you do not enter a stop-and-search vehicle.
From Mile 2, locate the buses loading towards Oshodi or straight down to Ketu / Mile 12. Drop off at the designated central hub closest to the Korede mainland link.
Board the final short-distance Danfo or enter a Keke directly inside the residential drop zone that leads straight into Korede street area.
Always hold exact change (called 'change' or 'lesser denomination') before you enter the Danfo to prevent long arguments with conductors.
Keep your bag strapped firmly across your chest when moving through the Mile 2 interchange to prevent stealthy pickpockets from unzipping it.
The absolute fastest way is to leave your house before 5:30 AM or utilize the Blue Line Rail from the nearby Mile 2 terminal to skip the road bottlenecks entirely.
Due to ongoing transport fare inflation, you should safely budget between ₦3,000 and ₦5,500 for a round trip to cover unexpected emergency price hikes by drivers.
No, there are no direct public Danfo buses. You must change buses at least once or twice, with major transfer hubs located at Mile 2, Oshodi, or Ketu.
Ensure your car windows are wound up reasonably high, keep your phone out of sight, avoid answering calls close to the window where it can be snatched, and stay alert to your surroundings.

Best Time to Travel
Depart early between 5:30 AM and 6:30 AM to bypass the critical morning bottleneck at Mile 2, or move during the off-peak window from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM when the expressway is relatively free.
Safety Rating
Medium - High presence of pickpockets at major interchanges like Mile 2 and Oshodi. Keep your phone and wallet secured inside your main bag, avoid displaying cash openly, and do not board any unmarked 'one-chance' vehicles, especially early in the morning or late at night.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, partial availability. You can board the Blue Line Rail from Mile 2 terminal down to Marina if you want to bypass mainland traffic completely, or catch the main BRT buses along the Ikorodu Road corridor once you hit the mainland hubs.
