Ojuelegba is one of the key transport modes of Lagos, connecting the city's Mainland with the Island. It also serves as a connecting point for people who commute the three surrounding districts of Yaba, Mushin and Surulere.[3]
Life in Ojuelegba has been depicted in several musical works, including Fela's Confusion album, Wizkid's "Ojuelegba" single and Oritse Femi's "Double Wahala" single.[4]
Night life
In the 80s and 90s, Ojuelebga was known for its boisterous night life, connecting revelers to Fela Kuti's Moshalashi Shrine on Agege Motor Road and to the red light district starting in Ayilara street through to parts of Clegg Street.[5]
