LAR Plate Number Meaning: Yewa South, Ogun
The LAR plate number is registered in Yewa South Local Government Area, Ogun. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
Yewa South, once listed as Egbado South, uses LAR from its seat at Ilaro. The 2006 census put 168,850 residents on 629 km², about 268 for every square kilometre. The letters follow the vehicle rather than the driver and survive every change of hands.

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