About
About Gbaji Yekeme Jetty
One of the three legs recorded here crosses an international border. The 07:30 from Porto-Novo, capital of Benin Republic, covers 14.4 nautical miles in 50 minutes to reach this jetty; a second 07:30 arrives from Farasime, 9 miles away; and an 08:20 leaves for Abule Osun, 22.5 miles east.
All three run Monday to Saturday, six sailings a week each, operated by Lagos State Waterways. Distances like these are unusual on this network, where most legs are under five miles.
Gbaji lies at the far western end of the Badagry creek system, close to the frontier, on water that runs continuously behind the coastal sandbar from Lagos into Benin. That geography is why a boat can leave a foreign capital and dock here without ever entering open sea — and why the border here has always been a line drawn across a working waterway rather than a barrier along it.
