Dance from African country with different ending (5)

I believe the answer is:

conga

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

'dance' is the definition.
(I know that conga is a type of dance)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for conga that I've seen before include "Long-line dance" , "Snaking Latin American dance" , "Circuitous line dance" , "Latin American "follow-my-leader" dance" , "Latin American dance performed in single file" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
