About the time in Mtakuja
Mtakuja follows the civil time used across its region of Tanzania; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Mtakuja sits at latitude -2.87, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 02m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 06:53 and sunset at 06:55 local time, giving 12h 02m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-2.87, 32.14) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Mtakuja.
