Are you an African timer?

A common thing that we Africans hear of, talk about or admit to is African timing. It happens all the time and if you want to test that theory, tell your friends and family you're having a party at 2 pm and see how many people actually show up right on time.

Some people say that African timing is a thing because we tend to be more relaxed when it comes to time. This is all fun and games but it won't be so cute when you show up late for an interview or a flight.
