Yes, modern slavery persists in Africa, affecting ~7 million people (per 2021 Global Slavery Index). Forms include forced labor, human trafficking, debt bondage, and forced marriage. Nigeria has the highest number (~1.6M), followed by Ethiopia and Egypt. It's illegal but driven by poverty, conflict, and weak enforcement (sources: Walk Free, ILO, UN).
