In a suit, oddly, in African country (7)
I believe the answer is:
tunisia
'african country' is the definition.
(Tunisia is an example)
'in a suit oddly' is the wordplay.
'oddly' indicates an anagram.
'in'+'a'+'suit'='inasuit'
'inasuit' is an anagram of 'TUNISIA'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for tunisia that I've seen before include "Republic in northwestern Africa" , "Country which contains the site of Carthage" , "Country in North Africa" , "N African country in which ancient Carthage lies" , "As Inuit visits there in North Africa" .)
