Ouagadougou runs on Africa/Ouagadougou, which puts the city UTC +0 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Ouagadougou sits at latitude 12.37, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 29m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
