African capital city running administration at outset? (5)
I believe the answer is:
accra
'african capital' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'city running administration at outset?' is the wordplay.
'city' becomes 'acc' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'at outset?' says to take the initial letters (I've seen 'at outset' mean this).
The first letters of 'running administration' is 'ra'.
'acc'+'ra'='ACCRA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for accra that I've seen before include "Capital city of Ghana" , "Largest city of Ghana" , "Ghanaian city" , "Ghana's capital" , "West African capital" .)
