Ah, thank you, I have mixed the latitude and longitude and did not put
it negative for latitude.

$ termux-location -p gps

{
  "latitude": -1.12455759,
  "longitude": 29.72765716,
  "altitude": 1825.0,
  "accuracy": 18.0,
  "bearing": 287.3999938964844,
  "speed": 1.9112823009490967,
  "elapsedMs": 6,
  "provider": "gps"
}

Now it is showing me pretty correctly:

M-x sunrise-sunset

Sunrise 6:57am (UTC+180), sunset 6:59pm (UTC+180) at Bwindi
Impenetrable Forest (12:02 hrs daylight)

Thank you,
Jean
