Earing I prepared for African Country (7)
I believe the answer is:
nigeria
'african country' is the definition.
(Nigeria is an example)
'earing i prepared' is the wordplay.
'prepared' is an anagram indicator.
'earing'+'i'='earingi'
'earingi' anagrammed gives 'NIGERIA'.
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for nigeria that I've seen before include "African country r" , "W. African country" , "Land in Africa" , "Country bordered by Benin, Niger, Chad, and Cameroon" , "part of Africa" .)
