DRTS Blames Abuja Number Plate Scarcity on Irregular Supply
The Directorate of Road Traffic Services (DRTS) in the Federal Capital Territory has linked the current shortage of vehicle number plates in Abuja to inconsistent and inadequate supply from the National Vehicle Identification Scheme (NVIS) Plant.
In a statement on Wednesday, DRTS assured residents that steps are being taken to resolve the issue. The agency also warned against fraudsters posing as officials to exploit the situation, urging the public to avoid unauthorized agents and use only the official self-service portal.
It emphasized that approved fees for number plates are published on its website and urged vehicle owners to reject inflated charges. DRTS said it is collaborating with security agencies to arrest and prosecute impostors, reaffirming its commitment to transparent and efficient service delivery.
