I wonder if they teach how to tell time in schools, or if the just “wing it”. What I have learned as “Africa time” (as I witnessed it in East Africa as well) is a unique time zone of its own. Things happen when they happen. When something is scheduled to start, it will most likely start after that time, by at least 20 to 60 minutes. But you get used to it. There is no rush to go anywhere fast; in the end we will get there, regardless of the time.
