City in Ghana is rebuilt with hospital (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shanghai

'city' is the definition.
(Shanghai is an example)

'ghana is rebuilt with hospital' is the wordplay.
'rebuilt with' indicates an anagram.
'hospital' becomes 'h' (abbreviation for hospital on maps).
'ghana'+'is'='ghanais'
'ghanais' with its letters mixed up with 'h' gives 'SHANGHAI'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for shanghai that I've seen before include "Kidnap - Chinese port" , "in a combination of single, double and treble" , "Press into service" , "Abduct; Chinese port" , "'What shall we do with a drunken sailor?'" .)
