Known for its strategic location that connects several major residential areas, Oke Afa is a place that never sleeps. Whether you are going towards Ikotun, Ejigbo, or heading out to the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway, Oke Afa is a major "junction" you will likely pass through.
Navigating Oke Afa can be a bit tricky because of the heavy traffic, especially during peak hours in the morning and evening.
