Finally he hangs out somehow in Japanese governor’s office (9)
I believe the answer is:
shogunate
'japanese governor's office' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'finally he hangs out somehow' is the wordplay.
'finally' indicates one should take the final letters.
'somehow' indicates anagramming the letters.
The last letter of 'he' is 'e'.
'e'+'hangs'+'out'='ehangsout'
'ehangsout' with letters rearranged gives 'SHOGUNATE'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Times.
