About the time in África
The zone identifier America/Mexico_City is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Mexico_City keeps pointing at Mexico City time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
África sits at latitude 15.79, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 32m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Clocks in África stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC −6 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Mexico.
