Rinderpest was the fast spreading and devastating disease of cattle plague. 

It affected the Africans in the following ways : 

(i) Rinderpest moved like forest fire. 

(ii) 90% of cattle were killed. 

(iii) The loss of cattle destroyed African livelihoods. Earlier people rarely worked for a wage. They possessed land and livestock. Due to Rinderpest, they were forced to work for wages and so it affected the economy. 

(iv) Colonial government forced the Africans into labour market.
