hello friend
The rinderpest or the deadly disease of cattle plague arrived in Africa through infected British cattle imported to Africa and the infectious disease killed 90% of the African cattle.
The loss of cattle destroyed African livelihood. Planters, mine owners and colonial governments now successfully monopolised their power and forced Africans to work for wages. Control over scarce cattle resource enabled European colonisers to conquer and subdue Africa.
