Bama does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Lagos all year. How times are calculated
Bama is in Borno State and has about 120,000 people. The nearest larger city is Maiduguri, 68 km to the west-northwest. Bama lies 1.3° west of the 15° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 5 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:05, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
Bama lies within the tropics. Around 21 April and 23 August the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Days in Bama range from 11h 27m in December to 12h 48m in June, a difference of 1h 21m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Bama, calculated with the same method.
