And if it was commercial vehicle the license plates are generally white and the number itself is imprinted in red. The background consists of an outline of a map of Nigeria. The top left corner bears the Nigerian flag, then state name and slogan is displayed at the top centre of the plate, and the Federal Republic of Nigeria is written at the bottom.

For example if you see a plate number like this (AGU-111XY) the first three letters (AGU) you see on above plate number indicates Aguata Local Government area of registration for the vehicle, each local government has their three unique code, the Three-Digit Number (111) is unique serial number assigned to each vehicle in that LGA and it Runs from 001 to 999 before resetting. The Last Two Letters (XY) Randomly assigned alphabet combinations for additional uniqueness and it Helps differentiate vehicles with the same LGA code and serial number.
And what if you see it in opposite side like this (XY 111-AGU) what does it mean this format (XY-123 EZE) was introduced first introduced in 1992 and it was later changed to (AGU 111 XY) so both of them are still the same the only thing that different is the year it was introduced.
