WNN Plate Number Meaning: Tarka, Benue
The WNN plate number is registered in Tarka Local Government Area, Benue. Those three letters record where the vehicle was first put on the road — not who drives it, and not where it is today.
Tarka registers as WNN. Around 79,494 people were counted in 2006 on 371 km², some 214 for every square kilometre. Small districts and large ones are treated alike here: each local government area receives exactly one code. The code is issued at registration and read back, later, exactly as it was given.

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