Alight at TBS (Terminus Bus Stop) or CMS. From there, board another BRT bus heading to Ojota. This is a direct and relatively fast route.
At Ojota, cross over to the side where buses go towards Ketu/Mile 12, but look for Danfo buses or minibuses specifically going to 'Oregun'. You might need to ask around for the 'Oregun' park within Ojota.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst of the peak hour traffic. Afternoons from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM can also be manageable. Avoid 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel, especially on less crowded routes or late at night, carries risks. Be aware of 'one-chance' vehicles (unmarked public transport that could defraud or harm passengers) at major bus stops after dark. Stick to well-known, busy bus stops and clearly marked public transport.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for significant parts of this route, offering a more structured and often faster option for the longer stretches. There is no train service for this intra-city route.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
