Questions from readers

Readers' questions about this page, answered from our own postcode data. We never look up or give new 11-character building codes: use postcode.gov.ng/find for those.

  1. Pls i can't find orile iganmu

    Faith asked on

    We don't list a code for Orile Iganmu yet. The only Orile Street entries we have are in Magodo (Kosofe LGA) and Shomolu Central (Shomolu LGA), not Surulere. Our old 6-digit codes cover postal areas, not single streets. You can find the new building-level postcode at https://postcode.gov.ng/find, or browse Lagos State postcodes to see the areas we cover.

  2. WHAT OF AYIETORO OWN ? ( POSTAL CODE NO )

    Oto-obong asked on

    We don't list a postcode for Ayietoro, so we can't give you a code for it. The Surulere Central page is the only Surulere area we cover here, with legacy postcode 101283 for that area. You can see the Lagos area listings on the Lagos State page. For a building-level code, use NIPOST's postcode finder.
