Similar to International Time, African Time is when one says they will arrive at a certain time, but arrive much later. It should be noted that almost every African (on both the leaving and receiving end) does this. So, if one does actually arrive on "American time," don't be surprised if a party is still getting set up, a person is still getting ready, etc etc.
