Find below the corrections. Before you argue please do your due diligence and ask Google

jidedoKQ:
Many people like me actually look at the three alphabets on Nigerian number plates and wonder what they stand for. Actually they stand for Local Governments or their headquarters. Since Lagos is one of the most popular cities (If not the most popular), lets start with Lagos number plates.

SMK- Somolu Local Government
JJJ = Ojo Local Government
KJA = Ikeja Local Government
AAA = Lagos Island LGA (HQ at Adeniji Adele)
FKJ = Ifako Ijaiye *
AKD = Akodo/Ibeju Lekki Local Government (the council Headquarters is in Akodo)
LND = Lagos Mainland Local Government
KTU = Alimosho Local Government (HQ at Ikotun)
BDG = Badagry Local Government
EKY = Eti-Osa/Ikoyi Local Government (the council headquarters is in Ikoyi)
KRD = Ikorodu Local Government
EPE = Epe Local Government
MUS = Mushin Local Government
GGE = Agege Local Government
LSR = Surulere Local Government
LSD = Oshodi Isolo Local Government
KSF = Kosofe Local Government (Ketu is under this LGA)
AGL = Ajeromi Ifelodun Local Government(HQ at Ajegunle)
APP = Apapa Local Government
FST = Festac

Corrections and additional comments is welcome. Thank you

My plate number is KTU and it's Ikotun, you are 100% wrong


onegig:
Wrong about KTU. That's Ikosi-Ketu and not Ikotun, that one at least i know for sure.

And LSD is Lagos Island and not Oshodi,


LSR is Ilasamaja and not Surulere or whatever you wrote

I doubt you were even correct about the others ecept for the obvious ones.

Imagine. All these while I was thinking AAA is for Alaba

I also thought LSD is for Lagos Island, which is incorrect. AAA is at Adeniji Lagos Island. Thanks

Ilasa should be under Oshodi-Isolo with headquarters at Oshodi. So you're not correct.

Lagos island is AAA
