SGM Plate Number Meaning: Shagamu, Ogun
The SGM plate number is registered in Shagamu 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.
SGM is issued in Shagamu, run from Shagamu town. About 253,412 people lived across its 614 km² in 2006, near 413 for every square kilometre. The code is inherited with the papers when the vehicle changes hands. That is the whole of what three letters can honestly tell you.

What the SGM Code Does and Does Not Tell You
A Nigerian plate carries the code of the local government area that issued the registration, so SGM places the paperwork in Shagamu. 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 SGM 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.
