Faith Motors is an interstate bus company based in Benin City, Edo State. A 2023 news report listed 12 routes from its Benin City park, mostly to the South East, South South and North Central. We could not find a current official price list, an official online booking page, or a confirmed Faith Motors departure from Lagos. Before you pay, confirm your route, park, fare and ticket terms with a staffed Faith Motors office.
This guide shows what public sources say, what we could not verify, and how to book safely.
Key Takeaways
- Park: Directories place Faith Motors on Akpakpava Road, Benin City. The listings disagree on the number (134 or 135).
- Routes: The NIGERIAN OBSERVER reported 12 routes from Benin City in June 2023, including Onitsha, Owerri, Aba, Enugu, Uyo and Abuja.
- Price list: We found no current company-issued fare list. Old fares online are not live prices.
- Online booking: We found no verified official booking website. Book at the park or through a contact you have checked.
- Lagos: We found no confirmed Faith Motors Lagos terminal.
- Reviews: Public directory reviews are mostly negative. Read them as warnings, not proof.

Which Routes Does Faith Motors Run From Benin City?
In June 2023, the Nigerian Observer visited several Benin City motor parks, including Faith Motors. Its reporters spoke with the company’s general manager, Oigbochie Godwin. The report said Faith Motors had 12 routes from Benin City:
- Abuja
- Onitsha
- Aba
- Abakaliki
- Makurdi
- Otukpo
- Calabar
- Uyo
- Ikot Ekpene
- Owerri
- Umuahia
- Enugu
The report also said many customers chose Faith Motors for Benin City to Onitsha trips because of its service at that time.
This list is from 2023. Routes can be added, paused or dropped. Always ask the park if your route runs on your travel date.
If you are planning travel to these cities from Lagos, these LagosMove guides can help:
- Lagos to Onitsha bus
- Lagos to East Nigeria by bus for Aba, Owerri, Umuahia and Enugu
- Lagos to Uyo bus
- Transportation from Lagos to Abuja
- Lagos to Makurdi bus fare
- Benue Links Motors, another operator to compare for Benue trips
- Eastern Mass Transit for South East routes
Where Is the Faith Motors Park in Benin City?
Two directories place the park on Akpakpava Road. BusinessList gives number 134. Finelib gives number 135, by Second East Circular Junction.
The gap is small, but it matters on a busy road. Before you set out, ask the office for the exact gate, the nearest landmark and a map pin. Save the pin on your phone.
Faith Motors Phone Number and Contact Details
BusinessList shows +234 806 409 9501 as a mobile number. It also shows +234 805 703 4060 in its fax field. We have not confirmed that either number reaches Faith Motors today. One reviewer on the same page said they could not reach the company through the contacts posted online.
Use any listed number with care:
- Use it to ask about routes, times and fares.
- Never pay into a personal account because a caller asked you to.
- Pay at the park counter, or only to a business account in the company’s name.
- Ask staff at the park to confirm the number.
Before you trust any chat number, read our guide on how to verify a transport company’s WhatsApp booking line.
Does Faith Motors Have Online Booking?
As of October 2026, we found no official Faith Motors booking website or app. Some third-party sites publish Faith Motors pages with fares and booking forms. We could not confirm that any of them is run by Faith Motors, so do not treat them as official.
The safer way to book:
- Visit or call the Benin City park and book at the counter.
- Ask for a ticket that shows the company name, route, date, seat and departure time.
- Keep your receipt and proof of payment.
If you prefer booking online, read how to book a bus ticket online in Nigeria. Use operators that publish their own booking channel.
Faith Motors Price List: What Fares Cost Now
We did not find a current price list issued by Faith Motors. Treat any “2026 price list” online as an estimate unless the company confirms it.
The 2023 record shows how fast fares can move. The Nigerian Observer found that Faith Motors fares rose by an average of 31.9 percent after the fuel subsidy removal. The Benin City to Onitsha fare rose by 60 percent. The general manager said passenger traffic had dropped by about 30 percent.
To get a real fare, including Benin to Owerri or Benin to Onitsha:
- Ask for the total fare for your exact route, date and bus type.
- Ask if luggage costs extra.
- Ask if fares rise on weekends or during festive seasons.
- Write down the date, the fare and the name of the staff member who gave it.
Does Faith Motors Leave From Lagos?
We could not confirm a Faith Motors terminal or departure in Lagos. The 2023 report lists routes from Benin City only. Do not go to Jibowu, Mile 2 or Oshodi because a third-party page links Faith Motors to one of those areas.
| Option | Best for | What to confirm first |
|---|---|---|
| Travel Lagos to Benin, then board Faith Motors | Travellers who want Faith Motors routes | Onward departure time and seat at Akpakpava Road |
| Book a direct Lagos operator | Most Lagos travellers going east | Exact Lagos terminal, gate and reporting time |
| Fly part of the trip | Long routes like Lagos to Abuja | Total cost, including airport transfers |
For the first leg, see our Lagos to Benin City bus guide. For direct trips, compare operators with published Lagos details: ABC Transport, God Is Good Motors (GIGM), Peace Mass Transit and Chisco Transport. Our Lagos bus parks guide helps you find the right terminal.
What Passenger Reviews Say
BusinessList shows a 1.0 rating from 11 reviews. Finelib shows a 1-star rating from 3 reviews. Complaints mention:
- Crowded back seats
- Goods loaded in with passengers
- Rude drivers
- Breakdowns during trips
- A 2025 review saying passengers on an Aba to Benin trip were dropped at Agbor at night
These are a small number of public posts that we could not verify. One reviewer also said the company used to be among the best. Use the reviews as a reason to ask good questions before you board.
Practical steps:
- Ask how many people sit in each row.
- Ask where luggage goes.
- Travel by day when you can.
- Share your trip details with family.

If Something Goes Wrong
First, complain to the company and keep your ticket and receipt. If that fails, you can file a complaint with the FCCPC (Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission). Its complaint portal lets you sign up on the website or the FCCPC Consumer Complaint App. You can then attach receipts and messages.
After you submit, you get a tracking code by email. The FCCPC says redress can take from 1 to 45 days, and some cases take longer. Its how-to page explains each step.
Before You Pay: Quick Checklist
- Route runs on your date
- Exact park, gate and reporting time
- Total fare, including luggage
- Cancellation and change rules
- Ticket with company name, route, date and seat
- Payment made at the counter or to a business account
