Banex Mall Lekki Phase 1 is more than a mall; it's 100+ stores, cinema, restaurants and event halls. Here's what's inside and why the whole of Lekki is talking about it.
Banex Mall Lekki — What's Inside, Who It's For, and Why You Should Visit
If you have driven past the Akiogun Road junction in Oniru and wondered what Banex Mall actually is, this is the answer.
Banex Mall is Lekki's most established all-in-one commercial destination. Over 100 active businesses.
A full cinema. Restaurants and a food court. Four event halls. Professional services. And a location that puts it within 15 minutes of Victoria Island, right on the edge of Lekki Phase 1 and Oniru.
This is the guide that tells you exactly what's inside, who goes there, and why it has become the everyday destination for one of Lagos's most concentrated professional and residential communities.
The Address and How to Get There
Banex Mall is located at Plot 1–10 Akiogun Road, Opposite Maroko Filling Station, Oniru, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos.
If you are coming from Victoria Island, take Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue and turn at Oniru.
From Lekki Phase 1 estates, Akiogun Road runs directly to the mall. From the Lekki expressway direction, take the Oniru axis.
Parking for over 100 vehicles is available on-site at no charge.
The building has lift and escalator access throughout, which matters for the event spaces on upper floors and for guests with mobility considerations.
100+ Businesses: What Category Are You Looking For?
Banex Mall organises its vendors across several categories. Here is what each one means in practice:
Tech and Gadgets — Phones, laptops, tablets, accessories, gaming, and smart devices from verified sellers. Original stock, UK-used options, warranty policies, and in-store inspection before purchase. The alternative to ordering online without seeing what you are actually buying.
Solar and Energy — Solar installation consultants, inverter suppliers, battery backup systems, and energy engineers who serve both homes and businesses. Lekki Phase 1's power situation makes this one of the most practically useful vendor categories in the building.
Security and CCTV — CCTV installation, access control, alarm systems, and smart security for residential and commercial properties. Physical vendors you can visit, compare, and return to if the installation needs adjustment.
Food and Dining — 20+ food options from fast food and quick bites to sit-down restaurants. The food court handles the daily traffic. The restaurants handle the evening and weekend crowd.
Fashion and Retail — Clothing, shoes, accessories, and lifestyle products for the Lekki demographic.
Legal and Professional Services — Law firms, financial advisors, consultants, and business support services with a Lekki Phase 1 address and walk-in availability.
Health and Beauty — Pharmacy, salon, skincare, and wellness services.

Why Banex Mall Lekki Is Worth a Visit This Week
Three reasons that apply regardless of why you're going.
One — you will find something you weren't looking for. Over 100 vendors in one building means every visit surfaces something you didn't plan for. This is what distinguishes a functioning mall from a single-purpose shop.
Two — the parking changes the experience. Parking for 100+ vehicles, free, on-site, removes the friction that makes most Lagos shopping frustrating. You arrive relaxed. You stay longer. You spend more.
Three — the cinema makes it a destination, not an errand. When a visit to Banex Mall can include a film, a meal, shopping, and a professional service appointment all in one stop. it stops feeling like work and starts feeling like somewhere worth going.
