The Ogun State Police Command has listed three legal situations in which dealership number plates may be used, according to Punch Nigeria. The command warned motorists against using the plates for private activities. The supplied material does not specify the three permitted situations, the vehicles covered by the guidance or the legal authority cited by police.
It also does not state what penalties motorists may face if they use dealership plates improperly. No figures are provided for inspections, seizures, arrests or other enforcement actions. The warning is attributed to the Ogun command.
The source material does not include comments from motorists, dealers or transport groups, and it gives no indication of when the guidance was issued. The available report is therefore limited to the police warning and its reference to three lawful uses.
