DAH Plate Number Meaning: Idah, Kogi
The DAH plate number is registered in Idah Local Government Area, Kogi. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
DAH marks Idah, administered from Idah town. Around 79,815 people lived within its 36 km² at the 2006 census, about 2,217 to the square kilometre. A plate lookup returns the district and the state behind three letters, and nothing about an owner.

What the DAH Code Does and Does Not Tell You
A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so DAH places the paperwork in Idah. It does not follow the car afterwards: a vehicle sold across state lines keeps its plate until it is re-registered, which is why a DAH plate away from Kogi is a question for the seller rather than a finding in itself.
The letters also say nothing about the holder, the model or the history of the vehicle. Colours and special series are a separate system, explained on the code hub; what the car itself has been through — auction lots, damage, mileage at sale — is recorded against its VIN and travels with the car even when the plate changes.
Questions about the DAH plate number
What does the DAH plate number mean?

Kogi. The code identifies the local government area — Idah — and the state is printed on the plate in words above the number.
