RMG Plate Number Meaning: Rimin-Gado, Kano
The RMG plate number is registered in Rimin-Gado Local Government Area, Kano. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
RMG is the Rimin Gado code, seat at Rimin Gado town. Around 104,790 people lived over its 225 km² in 2006, about 466 for every square kilometre. Allocation follows local government areas rather than population, however small the district. They are read left to right, ahead of the digits.

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