About the time in Kanya
Kanya follows the civil time used across its region of Nigeria; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Sunrise today lands at 06:27 and sunset at 06:53 local time, giving 12h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (11.30, 5.67) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Kanya.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Kanya 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.
