3. **Enter a bus going to Iyana Iba or Ojo Barracks:** From Mile 2, find buses or commercial mini-vans (popularly called "danfo") that are heading towards Iyana Iba, Ojo Barracks, or directly to Igbede/Shibiri. These buses ply the Badagry Expressway.

Traveling from Ikeja, the state capital, to Shibiri:
