I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one from dakar perhaps' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'seen buffeted by winds close to village' is the wordplay.
'buffeted' is an anagram indicator.
'by' says to put letters next to each other.
'winds' becomes 'gales' (gale is a kind of wind**).
'close to' says to take the final letters (the close/ending of).
The final letter of 'village' is 'e'.
'seen' is an anagram of 'sene'.
'sene'+'gales'+'e'='SENEGALESE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for senegalese that I've seen before include "from West Africa" , "Relating to a West African country" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
