Nilotic groups are actually one of the least variable humans on the planet. Their body types range between extremely skinny and skinny. The taller they are, the lighter they are. (Bergmann's rule.)
Not all Kenyans are Nilotic peoples. Many are Bantu, some are Cushitic, and there are probably a fair amount with a mix of two, if not all three, heritages. There's more to Kenya than just the rift valley.
