Abuja clocks, offsets and daylight saving
Abuja keeps WAT (1 hour ahead of UTC, UTC+01:00). Its database zone is Africa/Lagos — worth knowing if you are scheduling anything that has to survive a daylight saving change.
No seasonal adjustment applies in Abuja — UTC+01:00 is constant, which is worth remembering when a partner city moves its clocks twice a year.
