Bamako's country (4)
I believe the answer is:
mali
'bamako's country' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for mali that I've seen before include "Country of West Africa" , "African state's" , "A state" , "Timbuktu is in this landlocked country" , "Indian gardener; African republic" .)
