Somehow reunite followers (7)
I believe the answer is:
retinue
'followers' is the definition.
(retinue can mean an important person's followers)
'somehow reunite' is the wordplay.
'somehow' indicates an anagram.
'reunite' anagrammed gives 'RETINUE'.
(Other definitions for retinue that I've seen before include "Body of retainers" , "Group of assistants" , "Entourage, followers" , "Group around VIP" , "Reunite (anag) - group of servants" .)
