  • Cities along the mainland coast and Zanzibar Island became major international slave trading centers (Harris 1971). By the 1830s, clove plantation agriculture had experienced a boom in Zanzibar and this saw the increase in local slave populations from 15,000 in 1819 to over 100,000 in the 1830s (Cooper 1980; Davidson 1980; Croucher 2015). The plantation economy’s apex was reached between 1875 and 1884 when there were 43,000–47,000 slaves on the Kenyan coast which represented 44 percent of the population (Cooper 1980; Morton 1990); the largest concentrations of enslaved laborers were in the Malindi- Mambrui region near Takaungu and in the Lamu and Pate area, although there were smaller numbers of slaves in Mombasa and Vanga, among many other places (Morton 1990).

  • The pressure of British naval patrols forced slave traders to start selling their captives to internal merchants; instead of being shipped overseas, many captives began to be retained on the East African coast to support the labor needs of the rising plantation economy.

Indeed, as a result of the expansion of the frontier in all these remaining slave states during the first half of the nineteenth century, slavery existed over a larger area geographically than at any time in its history. And more Africans and Afro-Americans, some six million, were held in captivity; that is to say, more than twice as many as at the time of the 'first emancipation' in Haiti in 179

    The speaker agrees to be informed by about the question of slave trade in East Africa but he was imperfectly informed therefore he looked at it using general principles. He further point out that the situation of slave trade in East Africa is totally different from that of West African slave trade therefore techniques which were used in the past to deal with slavery cannot be deemed reliable to deal with their own situation of slavery so he suggests that they should come up with new tactics because firstly they cannot compared their situation with the one in West Africa because slave trade in the west had its origins which were supported by the Christian nations who were willing to even transport slaves from Africa to their colonies for their own benefits when they realized their inhumane actions they made it their responsibility to put an end to slavery and their means were different therefore theirs should be different to. so the measures which the speaker suggested to be put in place to end slavery were to limit slave trade by putting an end to selling of slaves in the markets, he suggests to put pressure on the leaders to stop the import of slaves and making it difficult for them to break laws against the slave trade.
