Good one.
Actually, the reference point in Kano city is Bata.
For those attacking the op by asking how a lost person can find his/her way to a place, remember that every city has a reference point where no adult can truly be lost there, unless the person refused to ask for direction there. From anywhere within the state you can easily go there, and once there, you must get someone from the place you are heading to.
That is the point of the post. 1 Like |

I would say it is quite hard to get lost anywhere when you have GPS enabled navigation maps (Like google maps, Bing Maps, Here WeGo, MapQuest, Waze etc).
However, lets assume that you do not have such a navigation device, or your phone battery is drained off, or worst of all these - you lost your phone...
Here's what you can do:
LAGOS
If you ever get lost in Lagos, just find your way to Oshodi, Berger, Ojota, Iddo or Jibowu, from these places, you can even get a bus going to Jerusalem.
IBADAN
In Ibadan find a bus to Iwo Road. From there, choose anywhere you are going on earth.
KADUNA
In Kaduna, just ask of Central Market (Kazuwa/Kasuwa - depending on your tongue), from there, you can take a bus to Jamaica.
ABUJA
In Abuja, find your way to Berger Roundabout, from there, ask for anywhere on earth. You will get a bus going there.
ONITSHA
In Onitsha, just go to Upper Iweka (pronounced as Oppy Iweka). You can even get a bus directly to Singapore.
CALABAR
In Calabar, simply find your way to Etim Edem Park, you can get to Iceland in seconds from there!
ENUGU
In Enugu, find your way to Holy Ghost Old Park. From there, even angels can take you to your destiny.
KANO
In Kano, find your way to New Road or Sabongari. You can take direct bus to Iraq from there.
PORT HARCOURT
In Port Harcourt, just find your way to Rumuola, Garrison, Mile 1, Lagos, Rumuokoro Roundabout or Waterlines. Even where planes cannot reach, you will get buses that go there from those places mentioned.
ILORIN
In Ilorin, find your way to Post Office or Taiwo Road. You can from these places enter Malaysia
BENIN
In Benin, find your way to Ringroad, New Benin, Iyaro or Oluku junction, you can get a bus that is heading to Italy directly.
YENAGOA
In Yenagoa, just go to Tombia Roundabout, believe me the rest will be history.
LOKOJO
In Lokoja, just find your way to Ganaja Junction, if you cannot find a bus going to where you are going in Ganaja Junction, then you are going nowhere.
UYO
In Uyo, take a taxi to Plaza, leave the rest of where you are going to the drivers.
JOS
In Jos, go to Terminus. From there, you can even get a bus to your destiny.
WARRI
In Warri, find a bus to Effurun Roundabout or Enerhen Junction. From there you will smile to anywhere you are going to.
AGBOR
In Agbor, find your way to Uromi Junction. The buses there can even take you to China without Visa.
OWERRI
In Owerri, just go to Control. They can even control you to ur destiny.

In Ilesha, just go to Roundabout, You can even get a bus directly to Los Angeles

As an undergrad I traveled to the North once. Funtua. I miscalculated the time of arrival and got to the location late, say 10 p.m. Luckily there was a central area the bus dropped me which was populated with people going to several destinations. I searched around and saw some military men sitting in a circle. I walked up to them, greeted in the little Hausa I was familiar with, told them I was a student visiting for the first time and was ready to sit with them while waiting for my guide. They asked for an ID card, I showed them. They asked a little about the school I attended and how the south was, I told them. They then welcomed me. A few minutes later my guide came and I was off. I believe this strategy will work for anyone. It’s possible I was lucky. I guessed since I was in the north, it was their turf so they’d feel comfortable to welcome me. 1 Like |

An absolutely stupid post.
Someone is lost in an unfamiliar city and you ask the person to find his/her way to so and so.
Why was the person lost in the first place?
Except you dropped out of the sky or tumbled out of a kidnap vehicle, you must have had a general idea of how you'd gotten to your current location.
Look around for a shop, buy something small and cheap to establish a kind of connection with the vendor, then make general enquiries on how to get to where you wish to go. In the end, you contradicted yourself. The general enquiries you make after you buy something cheap is it not to ask someone still? 2 Likes |
