Safety Rating
Medium - Commuters must stay alert and vigilant, especially at crowded junctions like Mile 2 and Oshodi Under-bridge. Watch your pockets and bags closely to avoid pickpockets. Avoid flashing your expensive phones or handling cash openly in these areas, particularly early in the morning or late at night.
