About the time in Bonou
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Bonou day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 08:00–16:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Bonou follows the civil time used across its region of Benin; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:44 and sunset at 07:02 local time, giving 12h 18m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.87, 2.48) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Bonou.
