Lobakuya lies 226 km south-west of Yamoussoukro, so Dhuhr in Lobakuya is called about 4 minutes later than in Yamoussoukro. This difference comes from longitude: every degree of longitude moves solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital is not accurate in Lobakuya.
