TAN Plate Number Meaning: Boluwaduro, Osun
The TAN plate number is registered in Boluwaduro Local Government Area, Osun. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
TAN belongs to Boluwaduro. Around 70,775 people were counted there in 2006 within 144 km², near 491 for every square kilometre. Each local government area in the state holds exactly one code, and a plate carries the one it was issued under.

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