Most populous African nation (7)

I believe the answer is:

nigeria

(Other definitions for nigeria that I've seen before include "I regain the African state" , "W. African country" , "Land in Africa" , "West African nation" , "In rage I turn to this country" .)

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