In east africa, what rainfall pattern does the rwenzori mountains and ethiopian highlands cause that is different from most equatorial regions?

Eastern Africa rainfall patterns.

Explanation:

The equator region consists of around 6% of the earth's surface involving low lands often characterised by high humidity. The dominant climate of Ethiopian highland is monsoon and the region tends cooler than other adjoining areas nearby thus different from warm  tropical areas of the equator due to its height.  The Rwenzori mountains support glaciers that form the Nile River, and remain snow-capped. Also called as the mountains of the moon.
