KEF Plate Number Meaning: Keffi, Nasarawa
The KEF plate number is registered in Keffi Local Government Area, Nasarawa. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
KEF marks Keffi, administered from Keffi town. About 92,664 residents were counted there in 2006 within 138 km² — roughly 671 for every square kilometre, and the most densely populated district in the state. It is also the smallest by area, which changes nothing about its code.

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