Abakaliki does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Lagos all year. How times are calculated
Abakaliki, the Sun and the clock
Abakaliki is the main city of Ebonyi State, home to about 130,000 people. Abakaliki lies 6.9° west of the 15° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 28 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:28, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
Abakaliki lies within the tropics. Around 6 April and 7 September the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Day length hardly changes in Abakaliki, from 11h 45m to 12h 29m through the year, so prayer times move only a little from season to season.
