Since the MANDATORY inclusion of VIN Numbers in Adverts (Even though some people still pretend that they dont know). I have seen a lot of clean up and "forced honesty" on the part of some sellers. 

As much as a VIN report is not a 100% surefire way to determine the complete history on a vehicle, it helps at least 90% of the time to determine quick idea about a vehicle's history, especially when odometer rollback is concerned.

As beautiful as the concept is, I just cant imagine if these records are kept and maintained by Nigerians. What worlds would we have been in? What do you think?

Nice question, If that were the case, Sellers will pay anything for a false record

Then the server would have experienced a kind spontaenous combustion a long time ago.
Imagine how many buildings went up in flames so that records go away.
Its not going to happen, we are too corrupt for that.
As long as the federal data shows that we have more people in Kano than Lagos, data will be what we want it to be.

As we have seen with some carfax reports.

Nice one.

Seems that we always find a way to ruin a good thing in Naija. No matter what the cost is. When you have importers go to somewhere like India/China to PURPOSELY request a manufacturer to reduce an Active content of a drug and still come to Naija and sell it for normal price

Mrs Akuyili almost lost her life for doin the right thing May God help us!

It would be possible if private sectors could come in, surely might need government supports too.

I had thought of it before, but was discouraged based on the fact that License office guys make illicit earning from double registration of license plate numbers and can do anything not to make it a success.

Imagine a car registered before and sold out to another fellow as fresh tokumbo, and worsen by the yeye guys who re-registered it again with new license plate just out of improper data documentations, nothing to checkmate such incidents.
pretty bad

that is total disaster if it is stored by Nigeria

Carfax reports in Nigeria? You'd better mute that idea! U never see where people dey rig carfax reports before, e go happen for here, try am
