A Nigerian lady’s boat journey from Ikorodu to Lekki became an instant hit on TikTok after she recounted her experience.

Initially planning to travel by car, she found the cost prohibitively expensive at N20,000. Opting for the waterway instead, she reached Lekki in a mere 20 minutes, spending only N1,500.
