About the time in Rikina
The zone identifier Africa/Lagos is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Africa/Lagos keeps pointing at Lagos time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sunrise today lands at 06:27 and sunset at 06:56 local time, giving 12h 29m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (13.00, 5.29) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Rikina.
Clocks in Rikina stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +1 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Nigeria.
