Best Answer

Slum areas, or shantytowns, are informal settlements that lack proper infrastructure and often house a significant portion of urban populations in major African cities, sometimes over 70%. These areas typically have inadequate housing, sanitation, and access to basic services, contributing to poor living conditions and health outcomes for residents. Efforts are being made to improve the situation through urban planning, housing initiatives, and social support programs.
