Niger neighbour (5)

I believe the answer is:

libya

(Other definitions for libya that I've seen before include "Petroleum-rich African desert country" , "Assault; pester" , "North African republic" , "Mummar al-Gadaffi's country" , "Colonel Gadaffi's country" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
