I pray for a Nigeria that it’s citizens can confidently plan for a long road trip to any part of the country without asking about the security atmosphere of the paths they are going to ply through.

Amen.

This is the main prayer.

Good morning Op,
I drove from Lagos to Abuja on Friday and the Jos the next day. A few pointers though,
1. Leave early, 5am if possible, there’s some construction at Obajana so the re route would take you an hour or two if it rains.
2. Omuo roads are terrible so give and take another hour added to ETA.
3. Have your wipers, headlights and defogger checked, it’s pretty difficult to drive late while it’s raining if any of these aren’t working properly.
4. Enjoy the trip, your first leg(Abuja to lokoja) is very good, make up for the time you’d lose on that road, Godspeed brother, please keep us updated.

Please recommend route for me as I intend embarking on the same trip ASAP

Hello, good day. I believe the fastest safest route for now would be Abuja-abaji-lokoja-obajana-kabba-omuo-ado ekiti-Ibadan- lagos. Try breaking the trips on your map as it wouldn’t suggest this as an option,ie Abuja to lokoja, lokoja to Ado ekiti,just like that. Safe travels

Thanks for taking the time to respond.

I am coming from the other end of the spectrum.

That should mean:

Lagos - Ibadan - Ado Ekiti - Omuo Ekiti - Kabba - Obajana - Lokoja - Abaji - Abuja

What are your thoughts on using Shagamu/Ore instead of Ibadan?

If you are in Lekki / Ajah axis , Esp Ajah , that route will be good for you , but then , Lagos Ibadan road is wonderful...

Honestly, I wouldn’t know as I’ve not gone through there before but I’d expect traffic at shagamu
