The ERE plate number is registered in Yagba West 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.

What the ERE Code Does and Does Not Tell You

A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so ERE places the paperwork in Yagba West. 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 ERE 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.
