The Maasai Tribe ๐ฐ๐ช๐น๐ฟThe Maasai tribe are an indigenous ethnic group in Africa of semi-nomadic people settled in Kenya and northern Tanzania. Due to their distinct traditions, customs and dress and their residence near the many national game parks of East Africa, the Maasai are among the foremost African ethnic groups and are known internationally because of their links to the national parks and reserves.The Masai population is approximately 900,000 and they speak Maa, a Nilo-Saharan language related to Dinka and Nuer. They also speak Swahili and English, the official languages of Tanzania and Kenya.Music and dance are vital to Maasai culture, marking special occasions like weddings, festivals, and rituals.Men perform the Adamu, or jumping dance, to show strength. The higher a man can jump, the stronger he is.Fun fact: UBA commenced operations in UBA Kenya in 2009, UBA Tanzania in 2009#Maasai #africasglobalbank #ubaat75 #UBAAmericaat40๐ธ๐Credits: getyourguide.co.uk, sawasawausa.com, micato.com
