Sprinted to grab magical device from African country (7)
I believe the answer is:
rwandan
'african country' is the definition.
'sprinted to grab magical device' is the wordplay.
'sprinted' becomes 'ran' (I've seen this before).
'to grab' indicates putting letters inside.
'magical device' becomes 'wand'.
'ran' going around 'wand' is 'RWANDAN'.
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for rwandan that I've seen before include "Kigali native, perhaps" , "From a central African country" , "Eg, a native of Kigali" , "African native" , "African chap" .)
