I believe the answer is:

sacred ibis

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'african resident' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how one could define the other.

'resolved a bed crisis' is the wordplay.
'resolved' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'bed'+'crisis'='abedcrisis'
'abedcrisis' with letters rearranged gives 'SACRED IBIS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for sacred ibis that I've seen is " Bird Egyptians venerated".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
