Time zone in Sokoto
Sokoto 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.
Daylight saving is not observed here, so UTC+01:00 is year-round. Any seasonal drift you notice against another city comes from that city, not from Sokoto.
