dc.description.abstractThe prevalence of modern slavery in Africa is emblematic of the global social economic inequalities between the rich countries in the global South and the poorer countries in the global North. In Africa, Nigeria ranked among the countries with the highest number of people living in global slavery. Therefore this study examined the challenges of combating modern day slavery in Nigeria in the context of global inequalities. Drawing on extant studies, the study argued that the lack of effective measures and collaboration by global, regional and national governments and organisations, to deal with the challenges of ‘modern slavery’ linked to transnational organised crime groups, continue to aggravate the menace in Nigeria and other African countries.Modern day slavery may be difficult to combat unless there is restructuring of the current international order, along with increased international cooperation to tackle the menace and the negative implications for national, regional and global security.en_US
