Ruto Markets Suswa Unique Baboon Parliament at UN Meeting

Date:

President William Ruto appeased Heads of State and delegates attending the sixth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA-6) at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) headquarters in Nairobi.

Speaking on Thursday, February 29, Ruto informed the over 3,000 delegates attending the session that they should leave the country before witnessing a spectacular phenomenon in Naivasha.

The Head of State revealed that by visiting Naivasha, they will be able to witness baboons hold their legislative meetings in their makeshift parliaments.

“I invite you to go to Naivasha and you will find a phenomenon called the baboon parliament where baboons meet regularly at a particular place and time and they discuss their legislative issues, ” Ruto stated amid laughter from the delegates.

“If you have a little bit more time, you might want to go to Maasai Mara where we have the wildebeest migration. this migration is much more orderly than the human migration,” Ruto added.

Baboon Parliament is a popular local folk legend circulated throughout the country for many years. According to the folk legend, a group of baboons in Mount Suswa were observed sitting on rocks in a formation that resembled a human parliament.

The story goes that the baboons would sit in the same formation every day, and one baboon would stand up and make loud noises while the others listened attentively.

The baboons would then appear to engage in some form of decision-making process before dispersing. However, there no documented scientific studies to support the claims.
