Makurdi does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Lagos all year. How times are calculated
Makurdi, the Sun and the clock
Makurdi is the main city of Benue State, home to about 390,000 people. Makurdi lies 6.5° west of the 15° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 26 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 12:26, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
Makurdi lies within the tropics. Around 10 April and 3 September the Sun passes straight overhead at Dhuhr, and upright objects cast almost no shadow at noon. Day length hardly changes in Makurdi, from 11h 40m to 12h 34m through the year, so prayer times move only a little from season to season.
Maghrib time Makurdi compared with nearby cities
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 Makurdi, calculated with the same method.
