Akwa Ibom State Plate Number Codes And What They Mean
Every state in Nigeria has their various plate number codes. These codes engraved on plate numbers have what they mean.
In our previous posts, we talked about Lagos State, Anambra, Imo, Abia, Ondo, Katsina, and Enugu State plate number codes and what they mean. This time around, we would reveal the meaning of the codes on Akwa Ibom State Plate Numbers.
The first three letters you see on any plate number indicates the Local Government area of registration for the vehicle.
Below are the Akwa Ibom state plate number codes and what they mean.
ABK – Abak (Abak)

AEE – Etim Ekpo (Utu Etim Ekpo)
AFG – Nsit-Ibom (Afaha Offiom)

DRK – Ini (Odoro Ikpe)
DUU – Uruan (Idu)

ETN – Etinan (Etinan)

The license plates are generally white and the number itself is imprinted in blue. The background consists of an outline of a map of Nigeria. The top left corner bears the Nigerian flag or the coat of arm. The state name and slogan is displayed at the top centre of the plate, and the “Federal Republic of Nigeria” is written at the bottom.
Akwa Ibom State is the first state in Africa to have a State Government-owned Airline. The state is also the highest oil and gas producing state and the eighth-largest Nigerian state by GDP (US$11,179 million).
