FTA Plate Number Meaning: Funtua, Katsina
The FTA plate number is registered in Funtua Local Government Area, Katsina. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
FTA is issued in Funtua, run from Funtua town. Around 225,571 people were recorded there in 2006 across 448 km², near 504 to the square kilometre. The letters follow the vehicle rather than the driver and survive every change of hands.

What the FTA Code Does and Does Not Tell You
A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so FTA places the paperwork in Funtua. 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 FTA plate away from Katsina 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.
