Monrovia, Liberia
Source: Ideel
Monrovia in Liberia possesses one of Africa’s worst slums, West Point. Home to 75,000 people, the slum is perpetually crowded, plagued with cholera epidemics, drug use, teenage prostitution and a lack of proper toilet facilities (so feces on the street and beaches is commonplace). A decades-long civil war contributed greatly to the slums’ increased size, as many sought refuge in the capital city.
