The Lagos State Government
has explained the reasons behind its recent creation of a website, www.lsmvaapvs.org, to verify plate numbers
issued by the State Motor Vehicle Administration Agency (MVAA), reports
ITRealms.
Disclosing this, the General
Manager, MVAA, Lagos, Mr. Lateef Lawal, said that through the website,
motorists and law enforcement agencies could confirm the authenticity of number
plates issued in Lagos by the agency.
“The platform also became
necessary in order to eradicate the unnecessary harassment of licensees by
officials of the Nigerian Police, Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and other
Security Agencies,” he declared.
Pointing out that the
situation became worrisome and embarrassing to the State Government and its
clients when incessant reports, calls, Short Messaging Service (SMS), e-mails and
visits from licensees that vehicles duly registered with Lagos State number
plates were being impounded by FRSC and other security officials.
He therefore urged the public,
particularly car owners, FRSC and security agencies to visit the MVAA’s website
at www.lsmvaapvs.org to verify the authenticity of number plates issued by the
MVAA.
“The site is easy to
navigate, once logged in, type in the number plate and wait for the confirmation
of the details of the vehicle,” he emphasized.
While wishing Lagosians a
joyful yuletide and prosperous 2017, Lawal enjoined motorists to comply with
driving rules and make sure that their vehicle particulars are up-to- date in
order to avoid being penalized by the authorities concerned during the period.

It is a great service by the MVAA. Very beneficial and useful for every car owners. The parallel car importer can also play a great role to verify the plate number of any car.
Thank you for your car tips
