THERE IS A WELL DEVELOPED ROAD NETWORK. THE NATIONAL ROAD
SYSTEM LINKS ALL THE MAIN CENTERS, ALTHOUGH IN SOME AREAS
SECONDARY ROADS BECOME IMPASSABLE DURING THE RAINS. PEOPLE
SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE ROBBERS IN NORTH NIGERIA AS ARMED
ROBBERIES EVEN IN BROAD DAYLIGHT APPEARS TO BE INCREASING.
TAXI:
MOST MAJOR HOTELS IN LARGE CITIES HAVE TAXIS WHICH RUN
CHARTER SERVICES FROM THE HOTEL TO ANY PART OF THE CITY
AT AGREED FARES. FOR LONGER DISTANCES CAR AND DRIVER CAN
BE HIRED, TAXIS ARE AVAILABLE. MOST MAJOR HOTELS
BUS:
LONG DISTANCE BUSES RUN FROM LAGOS TO MOST STATE CAPITALS.

MOST COMFORTABLE WAY TO TRAVEL.

CAR RENTAL COMPANIES ARE AVAILABLE IN LAGOS AND ABUJA &
IT IS VERY EASY TO FIND THEM. BUT IT IS BEST TO GO THROUGH
HOTELS. CHAFFEUR-DRIVEN CARS ARE ADVISED.

TO KANO (VIA IBADAN-OYO-OGBOMBOSHO-KADUNA-ZARIA), AND FROM

IS ALSO A BRANCH LINE FROM ZARIA TO GUSAU AND KAURA NAMODA.
A DAILY SERVICE RUNS ON BOTH MAIN ROUTES.

CAPITALS IN THE FEDERATION HAVE AIRPORTS SERVED BY EITHER
THE NATIONAL CARRIER OR PRIVATE AIRLINES.
