Hello! Can I have some clues for 4ac please?

4ac Staff facility turned over sacred text
-A---A

Also, for 10ac, I'm guessing from the letters that the answer's Malawi, but I can't see why.

10ac Country code secreted by girl, detailed
-A-A-I

Thanks for your help!

MAI (girl) with LAW (code)

Thanks! What's the 'detailed' part about?

The malawi one is law in mai(d) - (girl de-tailed)

Other one - staff is a verb and facility=skill

4a mantra

The girl would be maid, and if she is de-tailed, the last letter is taken off. Maid without a tail = mai. I think.

Thanks Ixion!

oops, thanks everyone!

Oops, I missed the detailed part!
