What is the best time to avoid traffic in Lagos?

This is how the traffic has defined the life of many Lagosians. The routine is to leave early and arrive late to avoid and survive the gridlock. I would advise you to set and be halfway through your destination before 6:30 am or before 5:30 pm in the Evening.
