yokiti:
Bro, I know at least 3 persons that do follow those buses up North when the need to journey across the Niger arises without any negative development.
As Mannylex will say; have no fear because you will journey to your destination in Joy.
.
You can as well follow Ilorin- Kontagora- Kebbi route:
You will get Ilorin Afonja at Iyana Ipaja; from Maraba park in Ilorin, Kontagora bus will be there, when you get to Kontagora, you will get those small Toyota starlet cars going to Kebbi either from the Auna- Salka- Agwara- Ibeto garage or opposite Baptist School/church- General Hospital- Colonel (Rtd.) Sani Bello vocational centre along Kebbi express.
.
As someone said on this thread, if the Dakingari camp is in Zuru local governement, then I can tell you to follow Government Girl College ( GGC)- Zuru town road instead but I just dont know how far the camp is from the Zuru town.
Niger and Kebbi states are so interwoven that at times, if you want to go from a place in Niger to another inbetween Niger state, you will enter Kebbi before getting to the place, its same for Kebbi state too.
.
Safe journey and do have a fulfilling service year ahead!

I think I will like a straight bus to camp. Do u know if cross country goes straight from Lagos to kebbi? And like How much is it

Dear Yokiti,

The route from Ilorin through Kontagora to Kebbi, how good is the road?
Because no be by map, map no know good road and robbers-infested routes.
And yes, Dakingari in in Suru, from the map. So its best to enter from south of Kebbi if we're coming from south of Kebbi (Lagos and South West Nigeria)

Basically, people from the east should go through Abuja.
Southwest can go through Ilorin-Kontagora (Niger State)-Dakingari (Camp)


But whats best for everyone is to get a direct bus from anywhere we can.

If you are ready to pay double of what you are expected to pay then you can follow cross country if otherwise, then follow the regular buses.

XerXesNG, sir/ ma, as at the last time I plied the route, the road is good ( except very close to Kontagora and the Jebba axis) because it was under rehabilitation. I think REXIBITY a nairalander served/ resides in Kebbi; he/she might be of good help in answering other questions.

Cutekemitola: I prefer not to serve with this batch.how do I go abt dat

U can claim u lost ur callup letter and back ur claim up with affidavit and police report. U will be deployed next batch

I beg na how much one fit get flight to sokoto from Lagos. Na kebbi dem drop my roommate also

From Airport in Sokoto to Dakingari in Kebbi is over half the journey by road from ABJ/Ilorin to Camp. So flying to Sokoto airport is basically useless. Unless you're flying there from Lagos then you wouldve avoided a considerably profitable distance by road.


Somebody help with bus rates.

Is there an airport in Niger state?
Thanks.

XerXesNG:

Flying is officially a no-no.
Arik Air
About 50K

check aero should be cheaper!

suyamasta:

check aero should be cheaper!

After checking routes up ans down, I checked map. Sokoto airport is too far from the camp in Kebbi. So if you have money, you can fly to ABJ then board a bus to Camp. If you don't mind not getting enough value for your money you can fly to Sokoto from Lag or Abj then board a bus to Camp.

But in my opinion, I won't risk taking a planein the northern region in this weather. After that crash in Mali lol.

ok

Are doctors still on strike? If so, it won't be possible to get medical reports now, will it?

Camp starts on Tuesday. For people who want to redeploy, is it pertinent to arrive camp on that Tuesday? Will we be allowed entry on Monday?

Cutekemitola: I prefer not to serve with this batch.how do I go abt dat

Thanks. Do you know the area in Sokoto where those buses stop? Do they usually go through Abuja? Because it looks like they may pass through Kebbi to Sokoto and they even pass near the camp if they don't go through Abuja.

Please which park in lagos can I get bus to Kebbi? I really do hope to go on time to the camp.

Emmanueloy: Please which park in lagos can I get bus to Kebbi? I really do hope to go on time to the camp.

I contacted some guys organizing transportation from yabatech direct to camp. They will be leaving Monday afternoon. seems I will be following them. They said 9k is the transportation fare

ajasa4link: Please guys How much is the fare from Abuja to kebbi and what's the duration of the trip. It seems I will have to first travel from Lagos to Abuja and then Abuja to kebbi

Me too. I'll get to Abuja, then go to Kebbi.
Going from Abuja to Sokoto, then Kebbi is a waste of time. They will pass near the camp (according to the map). So we need to know where to alight on the way to Sokoto, then get to the camp.
