To seasonal food and water sources.
Nomadic herders roam with their animals to where the greenest grass and the most water is.

Because they want warm weather all Year around.
Nomadic herders typically live in regions that support extensive grazing, such as grasslands, steppes, and tundras. Common areas include parts of Central Asia, the Arctic, and the Sahel region of Africa, where they move seasonally in search of pastures and water for their livestock. Their lifestyle is often adapted to harsh climates and remote locations, emphasizing mobility and a deep connection to the land.
Nomadic herders are limited to where they can graze their animals, and cannot manage pastures because there really is no such thing as a pasture. When the grass is not there, they have to move on; they can't stay in one place.

As they can't grow crops in a desert they tend to be nomadic herders who move from waterhole to waterhole.
Nomadic herders move their livestock to find fresh grazing areas and water sources for their animals. This also helps prevent overgrazing in one area and allows the land to recover. Additionally, moving livestock can help reduce the risk of disease transmission among the animals.
Not all people in Africa do this, but there are certain tribes that live a nomadic lifestyle, either as hunter gatherers (eg the bush people of the Kalahari) or as cattle herders following the grass (eg the Maasai).
The different forms of pastoralism include nomadic pastoralism, where herders move with their livestock in search of fresh grazing lands; transhumant pastoralism, where herders move seasonally between different altitudes or climates with their livestock; and sedentary pastoralism, where herders remain in one location and bring the livestock to grazing areas. Each form of pastoralism is adapted to the specific environmental and social conditions of the region.
