Honestly, moving around Computer Village can be a bit of a nightmare if you’re not prepared traffic, crowded danfos, and keke riders zig-zagging everywhere. 😅 Over time, I’ve figured out a few ways to survive without losing my sanity.
First, I try to go early in the day before the mad rush hits. The roads are calmer, buses aren’t packed like sardines, and even short trips feel less stressful. If I can’t make it early, I usually book a Bolt or Uber yes, a bit more expensive than the local danfo, but at least I’m not crushed against 10 strangers while juggling my bag and laptop.
For really short trips inside the area, I rely on bike or keke riders I already know it’s quick, they know the local shortcuts, and I don’t have to haggle every single time. I also keep my phone charged, share my ride details with a friend, and try to avoid peak hours like late afternoons when everyone is rushing out to shop or collect stock.
Honestly, with a little planning and knowing which transport option works best for the situation, navigating Ikeja Computer Village becomes manageable even kinda fun if you enjoy people-watching and dodging traffic chaos.
