java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown timezone: Africa/Lagos

See original GitHub issue

Hi, I am a React native developer from Lagos, Nigeria in Africa, and I am using react-native-date-picker v2.2.1, RN v0.59.9. During development, even when I run react-native run-android on a physical device, it runs very well but when I build my app to an APK, and I try to use the app, it crashed. It doesn’t do this on iOS and so I checked logcat and I got the error.

    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown timezone: Africa/Lagos
        at net.time4j.tz.l.a(Unknown Source:255)
        at net.time4j.tz.l.a(Unknown Source:15)
        at net.time4j.tz.l.a(Unknown Source:1)
        at net.time4j.d.a.g.a(Unknown Source:0)
        at net.time4j.d.a.g.a(Unknown Source:22)
        at net.time4j.a.a.run(Unknown Source:14)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:764)

I think it’s an issue on android that is specific to my location. Please what is the solution or work around to this?
