In this review, basic epidemiological features of CBPP, complicated by existing different strains of Mycoplasmas with similar biochemical characteristics, with preference to Sub-Saharan Africa are discussed. Many sub-Saharan African countries are challenged by variable gaps that include diagnostic tools and control strategies. Science-based issues on diagnostic procedures, vaccination, treatment, and other control strategies are discussed. Participatory epidemiology (PE), a diagnostic technique used in the identification and solving of animal health problems in rural communities, was also discussed. PE application, in conjunction with conventional diagnostic tools, will improve CBPP identification in pastoral rural communities and promote control of the disease in Africa. Furthermore, adequate CBPP control can be achieved through stronger political commitments from governments by prioritizing the disease among major diseases of high economic importance to the livestock industry for surveillance and control. Investment in CBPP control in endemic African countries will assure food security, livelihoods and the general well-being of people, and international trade.Keywords: contagious bovine pleuropneumonia, Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides, economic impact, diagnostic tools, control strategies, sub-Saharan AfricaAlhaji NBAnkeli PIIkpa LTBabalobi OODove Medical Pressarticlecontagious bovine pleuropneumoniamycoplasma mycoides subsp mycoideseconomic impactdiagnostic toolscontrol strategiessub-saharan africaVeterinary medicineSF600-1100ENVeterinary Medicine: Research and Reports, Vol Volume 11, Pp 71-85 (2020)
