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 = Ademola Adeniji Adele
FKJ = Ifako Ijaiye *
AKD = Ibeju Lekki Local Government (the council Headquarters is in Akodo)
LND = Lagos Mainland Local Government
KTU = Alimosho Local Government (Ikotun)
BDG = Badagry Local Government
EKY = Eti-Osa 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
AGL = Ajeromi Ifelodun Local Government
APP = Apapa Local Government
FST = Festac

Corrections and additional comments is welcome. Thank you

Think there are some errors in that compilation, I guess festac is the most popular and the headquarters of Amuwo-odofin that's why they used FST.

You are wrong, the guy is right. AAA is adeniji Adele. If you go to isale eko/ island much more , you will see that majority of the vehicle their are marked AAA. Anyway that is a funny reply,though misinformation.
