Detailed Solution

The given statement is False.
The Maasai are historically pastoralist nomadic people from Kenya. Like other pastoralists in Africa, the Maasai have spent ages surviving by herding cattle, goats, and sheep, travelling hundreds of kilometres in search of water and grazing area for their herds. The core of Maasai culture is the conviction that they are the keepers of all cattle in the world because God (known as Engai or Enkai in the Maa language of the tribe) created cattle specifically for them. Life for Maasai is focused on gathering and grazing vast herds of cows (and, to a lesser extent, goats). The pastoral Maasai live a largely nomadic lifestyle, travelling in groups all year long and relying nearly exclusively on their cattle's flesh, blood, and milk for their food.
The correct statement is, Maasai is an important pastoralist community in Kenya.
