MKW Plate Number Meaning: Mokwa, Niger
The MKW plate number is registered in Mokwa Local Government Area, Niger. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
MKW is issued in Mokwa, seat at Mokwa town. Around 244,937 people were recorded there in 2006 across 4,338 km², near 56 for every square kilometre. The code is inherited with the papers when the vehicle changes hands. Whoever drives the car next inherits the same three letters.

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