Walk to the main bus stop near the Oyingbo Market or under the bridge.

From Yaba Bus Stop, board another Danfo heading towards Fadeyi, Onipanu, or Palmgrove and drop at Palmgrove Bus Stop.
Always enter the bus with change (smaller naira notes) to avoid fights with the conductor.
Keep your phone and wallet inside your bag, especially when the bus is loading at Oyingbo.
Listen carefully to the conductor so you do not miss Palmgrove bus stop.
Confirm the price from the conductor before you put your leg inside the bus.

Safety Rating
Medium - Oyingbo is very busy and crowded, which brings out pickpockets especially in early mornings and late nights. Palmgrove is safer but you must stay alert around the pedestrian bridges.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, BRT buses run directly from Oyingbo BRT Terminal to Palmgrove along the Ikorodu Road dedicated lane. The Lagos Mass Transit Blue Line rail starts at Oyingbo, but it goes towards Mile 2, not Palmgrove.

Areas Affected
Murtala Muhammed Way
No, Keke (tricycles) are not allowed to drive along the main Ikorodu Road expressway where Palmgrove is located. You can only use Keke for short inner-street connections within Oyingbo or Yaba.
If you are using a Danfo bus, budget between ₦700 and ₦1,100 depending on the time of day. If you use the BRT bus, it costs between ₦500 and ₦800 via your Cowry card.
Oyingbo gets very rough and dark after 8:30 PM, and pickpockets operate heavily near the market stalls. Palmgrove is relatively calmer, but you should avoid lonely corners and use the pedestrian bridge where people are moving.
If Jibowu is completely blocked, you can tell your Danfo driver to take the back streets through Alagomeji to link Yaba, or you can simply use the BRT bus because it has its own special lane that bypasses regular traffic.
