About the Itomu Jetty – Badore Ferry Terminal crossing
One departure at half past six, Monday to Friday, covering 1.1 nautical miles in 5 minutes. Nothing later in the day and nothing at the weekend.
Two feeders, one hour
Gberigbe also sends a single boat into Badore at exactly 06:30, from 3.8 miles out. Two separate landings, the same minute, the same terminal — the timetable is built around what happens after the boat lands, not before it.
Thirteen knots on the lagoon
Short and quick. Itomu sits on the Lekki lagoon shore, and the run into Badore is the first leg of a commute that continues by road.
Listed to 21 April 2027
A twelve-month plan. On this network that reflects a settled arrangement rather than a lack of revision.
