Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport can be crowded. Be vigilant, especially during evening travel. There is a risk of 'one-chance' incidents (criminal activities in public vehicles) on less reputable local buses, particularly at night. Always use well-lit, busy bus stops and reputable transport services.
