When I was serving in Benue, I was obsessed with the number plates and what they stood for. I think I knew up to 20 out of the 23 LG at the time. Lemme see if I can still remember MKD --- Makurdi GBK--- Gboko WNN --- Wanune (HQ of Tarka LG) NAK--- Naka (HQ of Gwer west LG) ALD--- Alliade (HQ of Gwer east LG) TKP--- Otukpo LSL --- Lessel (HQ of Ushongo LG) TSE --- Tse Agbaragba?? (HQ of Konshisha LG) GTU --- Agatu KPA --- Idekpa (HQ of Ohimini LG) VKY --- Vandeikya ADP --- Adikpo (HQ of Kwande LG) GJB --- Gbojimba (HQ of Guma LG) KAL --- Katsina Ala GML --- Igumale (HQ of Ado LG) KPG --- Okpogwu Opoga 1 Like |

cosade: Then it should have been KTN as KTU would be easily mistaken for Ketu. It all shows that those who coined the abbreviations did not do a thorough job. |

Authoreety:ADK 452 AA and ADK 452 XA. ADK means Ado Èkìtì Local Government from Èkìtì state. AA means numbering in such a way for private it starts with AA and takes number from 01 to 999, then to AE, AE starts from 01 to 999 till AZ and then move to Letter B and so on. For commercial numbers ADK 452 XA. It starts from XA (01-999), then XB (01-999) and so on. This way you can identify the serial number of a particular number in a local government for either private or commercial. Eg, MUE 222 AE is number 1221 private number registered in Ekiti East local government, Omuo Èkìtì. This is how I got it. AA picks from 01 to 999, that's 999 cars, then moved to AE number 222 add together you get 1221. This is what I know about it 2 Likes 1 Share |
