Passing through Kano will be too far. The best bet is Jos or Bauchi. There is direct bus from Jos to Maduguri, bauchi, gombe and all north east state.
Which kind Waka be that? When you even end up spending more money.

If the person is coming from SS,SW and SE, you can't get Yobe direct. The person will get to Kano first, then from Kano you get to Yobe and after Yobe comes Borno
Unless Kano is closer to the camp than Potiskum or Damaturu, then fine.
But telling someone coming from the SE or SW to go through Kano isn't cute.

I agree that there're no direct buses to Yobe from those regions, but coming from the SE, the surest bet is to enter the bus going to Maiduguri instead. They'll stop the passenger at Potiskum or Damturu, instead.

I don't want to talk much for SW because I haven't tried Lagos to Maid before. But I'm sure of the SE.

take a bus to kano first, kano has direct routes to all these small northern states katsina, Jigawa, bauchi, and Gombe. you might not get buses from lagos to these places


Kano is for people going to the East.

So far you're going to the west, you stop at Kaduna.

Your ride with the one you chose is ride to great beyond.

For those of you posted to Kano, please try as much as possible to redeploy while in camp.
Kano is a Sharia state and the experience will not be funny.
I served in Kano between July 2017-July 2018 and it's among the worst periods of my life.

Forget all these stories you read on nairaland about opportunities in Kano, my brothers and sisters who no go no go know ooo. Nothing like opportunities there, except class room of course, because there are lots of aboki illiterates.

Again, for the social folks, Kano is not for you.
Kano is for fanatics.

Redeploy while you can.
Serving in Kano is among the list of my regrets

Don't say I didn't warn you ooo.
Save travels people

Please stop miss informing people I serve in Kano and I can confess that opportunity abound, if you confined yourself while you were in Kano don't discouraged others

You can't get direct from SE to Maiduguri, they will only deceive passengers they are going to Maiduguri. When they get to Jos or Bauchi , they stop and every one finds his way.

This also, would be better, for those going to the East.


Going through Kano can be stressful, unless you're going further north east.

The last batch of corps I entered buses with had a host of people going to Jigawa and then Bauchi. It is easier going to Jigawa, gombe and so on from Kano, but stressful coming to Bauchi, Nasarawwa ef al. So, the best bet would be to go through Jos

They deceive passengers with that since there are few passengers going to Maiduguri from Lagos. it's better you get to Kano, which has more passengers and from Kano, you can get to Potiskum , the orientation camp

Been coming here since 2013, and I've never seen past Kano.

They always say, if you're going to the East, you go to Kano. If you're going to the West, you stop at Kaduna. They never ply beyond Kano

Especially now that there would be lots of innocent people compelled to go to the North. And they don't know the route. They will be forced to believe them.

Your description is like , you are going to Ikeja from Maryland, you first drive to Ojota and from Ojota, you make a u turn and come to Ikeja.From Lagos to Katsina, the shortest is, you stop at Zaria under bridge, then board bus to katsina less than 1h 30 mints

How can from Zaria to Katsina be 4hours?


Nah, shouldn't be. A little more than 2 hours.

But maybe the bus wasn't full and they kept picking and dropping passengers along the way. Or maybe he boarded Funtua, then Katsina


Maybe......

Who knows a guy called Braimoh, he used to drive for Flight? Greet that guy for me, he is a skillful and well experienced driver. During my NYSC in 2010, I once entered his Flight's Toyota Hiace bus from Gboko, Benue State to Wukari, Taraba State, after my first journey with him, I decided to be waiting for his turn to load before I enter bus @ Flight's Office. He speeds very well and safely too. Only stops at Restaurant for his passengers to refresh while he also changes his brake pads, and after that speed resumes. With him, we usually arrived in good time. Kudos to that guy.

I don't know the map of Kano, but Tarauni LG to the best of my knowledge is inside Kano.
I served inside Ungwa uku. My place is few minutes walk from FGC Kano.

Everyone will just mention Sabin gari, but we all cannot live there. Not all Lagosians live in Ikeja for example, same way not all Abuja citizens live in Garki. The notion of live and let's live does not apply to Kano.

So PCMs, redeploy while you can, before it's too late.
Outside sabon gari, Kano is trash.
Beautiful city I must say, but religion damaged it completely.

Kano is a Sharia state, period.

Just Tarauni, unguwa uku and Sabon gari. Thats 2 out of 7 Local gov't in Kano metropolitan. What's in Sabon gari sef? Better joints they Nassarawa LG, you are here calling Sabon gari. You don't even know Kano.

Sharia. Which sharia. What did sharia stop you from doing in kano? You expect to be seeing women wearing tight, skimpy dresses. Or people drinking shayo on the street. Them no give u proper orientation , aswear..

Oga, premium or whatever can't restore you back to life. When gone you're gone.

I hate unnecessary argument. Same kind of car/bus that takes you to east is same u use there.
