LAW Plate Number Meaning: Ekiti-South-West, Ekiti
The LAW plate number is registered in Ekiti-South-West Local Government Area, Ekiti. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
LAW belongs to Ekiti South-West, administered from Ilawe Ekiti. The 2006 census put 165,277 residents on 346 km², near 478 for every square kilometre. Two cars registered here on the same day share these letters and differ in the serial that follows.

What LAW Plates Look Like
Counted from the 10 LAW plates we hold. It describes what we have seen, not the vehicle register — and the colour is the paint on the car, which is a different question from the colour of the plate itself. What plate colours mean

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