From your location in Victoria Island, walk or take a Keke/Danfo to the nearest BRT bus stop or a major bus stop like Law School or Eko Hotel Roundabout. Look for buses going towards CMS.
Board a BRT bus or a yellow Danfo heading to CMS (Marina). BRT is usually faster and more comfortable.
At CMS, locate the BRT terminal or the Danfo park. Board a BRT bus or a yellow Danfo going towards Yaba.
Alight at Yaba Bus Stop. From Yaba Bus Stop, you can easily find a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a short Danfo going directly into Tejuosho Market or the surrounding area.
BRT buses often have dedicated lanes, which can save time in heavy traffic. Always have your BRT card topped up.
Confirm the destination with the conductor before boarding any bus.
If a 'straight' bus to Yaba is not available at CMS, you might find one going to Ojuelegba, from where Tejuosho is a short trip.
During off-peak hours, it can be as quick as 45 minutes to 1 hour. During peak traffic (morning and evening rush hours), expect 1.5 to 2.5 hours, sometimes more.
It's best to carry small denominations of Naira (₦50, ₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes) for bus fares. Avoid flashing large sums of cash. Mobile payment options are not common for public transport fares.
Yes, major bus stops include CMS, Obalende, Yaba Bus Stop, and Tejuosho Market itself. Always confirm your destination with the conductor or driver.

Best Time to Travel
Mid-morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) or late afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM) to avoid the worst of the peak hour traffic. Travel early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or late at night (after 9:00 PM) for faster journeys, but with increased safety considerations.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos is generally safe during the day, but exercise caution. Avoid isolated bus stops late at night. Always board buses from designated, busy bus stops. Be aware of pickpockets in crowded areas like markets and bus parks. 'One-chance' vehicles are a risk, especially if you board a vehicle that isn't a recognized public transport type (like a marked Danfo or BRT) from an isolated spot after dark. Stick to well-known bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
