How were the west African kingdom involced in slave trade?
West African kingdoms played a significant role in the transatlantic slave trade by capturing and trading enslaved individuals from rival tribes and communities. They often engaged in warfare or raids to acquire captives, whom they sold to European traders in exchange for goods such as firearms, textiles, and alcohol. These kingdoms, including the Ashanti, Dahomey, and Oyo, benefited economically from the trade, which deeply impacted their societies and contributed to the destabilization of the region. The involvement of these kingdoms in the slave trade also facilitated the expansion of European colonial interests in Africa.
Why did European slave traders not have to capture slaves in west Africa themselves?
European slave traders did not have to capture slaves in West Africa themselves because they established trade relationships with local African leaders and groups who conducted the capture and sale of slaves. These local intermediaries would often raid neighboring communities or conduct warfare to acquire captives, whom they sold to European traders in exchange for goods such as textiles, firearms, and alcohol. This system allowed European traders to profit from the slave trade without directly engaging in the violent and complex processes of capture and transportation.

How did the European traders capture slaves in west Africa?
In most cases, European traders did not capture slaves. West African nation states controlled the regions from which most slaves were abducted; thus Europeans had very limited access to people beyond the coast. As in Europe, African states were sometimes engaged in war, which produced captives, some of whom were kept in a form of indigenous African servitude. After the arrival of Europeans, tribal chieftains began to trade such captives of war, along with other goods. As the American plantation system grew into a highly lucrative enterprise, so did the demand for chattel slaves (human property). Gradually, Europeans became aggressive participants in the abduction of slaves and played a dominant role in organizing slave-raiding parties whose business it was to the capture other Africans in exchange for European goods--weapons, liquor, beads, cloth, etc. European traders then transported victims to the Americas as "merchandise," making a profit on human misery.

What are the negative effect of the tran Saharan trade on West Africa?
I don't know about West Africa in particular, but I can tell you about the effects in general: The trans-Saharan trade routes affected many things, both positively and negatively. Africa was transformed due to the trading through caravans. Because of it, Timbuktu was founded and established, Islamic religion prospered, internal trade arose, and the northern and southern areas of the Sahara became significant for the goods they produced. One important positive effect that came about from the trans-Saharan trade route was extreme wealth of the empires and leaders in control during the time span of the trade routes. This abundance of wealth is shown in Mansa Musa's famous pilgrimage to Mecca in what is known as a Hajj. The concept of this trip init of itself shows the effects of the trans-Saharan trade, because to embark on a Hajj requires an Islamic Religion, and this religion was brought to the ruler of Timbuktu by none other than the trans-Saharan trade route. In his Hajj, Mansa Musa was escorted by a caravan consisting of 60,000 men including a personal retinue of 12,000 slaves, all of whom were clothed in colorful and expensive Persian silk. As well, he brought 80 to 100 camels burdened with 300 pounds of gold each. This rich emperor rode on horseback and was directly preceded by 500 slaves, each of whom carried a four pound staff of solid gold. Further examples of Mansa Musa's ultimate wealth are shown when he visited Cairo on his long journey. It is said that the emperor was so generous in his spending that he flooded Cairo's markets with gold, causing such a decline in its value that over a decade latter it still hadn't fully recovered. The trans-Saharan desert was an exemplary show of cultural diffusion, not only of products but of intangible goods as well.
