Party involved any African (6)
I believe the answer is:
libyan
'african' is the definition.
(Libyan is an example)
'party involved any' is the wordplay.
'party' becomes 'lib' (abbreviation for Liberal, uk political party).
'involved' indicates anagramming the letters (involved can mean confusing or complex).
'any' with letters rearranged gives 'yan'.
'lib'+'yan'='LIBYAN'
(Other definitions for libyan that I've seen before include "Eg, native of Tripoli" , "as those born in Tripoli" , "Muammar Gaddafi's nationality" , "One from Benghazi" , "such as began in Benghazi" .)
