DDA Plate Number Meaning: Ido, Oyo
The DDA plate number is registered in Ido Local Government Area, Oyo. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
DDA is the Ido code, run from Ido town. About 152,520 residents (2022) live across 986 km², some 155 for every square kilometre. Codes name districts rather than towns, so settlements inside the local government area share these same letters. The letters are the one part of a plate tied to a place.

What the DDA Code Does and Does Not Tell You
A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so DDA places the paperwork in Ido. 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 DDA plate away from Oyo 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 DDA plate number
What does the DDA plate number mean?
DDA is the registration code of Ido Local Government Area in Oyo. A vehicle wearing it was registered there; the three digits after the letters are its serial inside that LGA, and the last two letters are the series.

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