Somalia has experienced many educational systems in the last century. Since 1991, after the collapse of the state in Somalia, the country has faced multidimensional problems. The recovery of the education system in Somalia has taken place and many challenges have emerged. The diversity of government styles has an impact on the education system in Somalia. The dispute between the Federal Government of Somalia (FGS) and its Federal Member States (FMS) has emerged in the education system. The article seeks to understand the root causes of the educational system's disparity between Somali education authorities, both at the national and local levels. The purpose of the study is to investigate the main causes of the dispute between the federal government of Somalia and the federal member states of Somalia. The point of the article is that special consideration should be given to educational institutionalization in Somalia. The article indicates that the dispute between the FGS and FMS cannot be solved through negotiation approaches and instead needs legislative or education acts. The paper concluded that the root causes of the dispute are a lack of inclusive legal and educational policies, a lack of educational philosophy and examination regulation, and a lack of financial procedures. The study recommended that education be institutionalized, specifically the legal, policy, philosophy, examination, and financial regulations, as a critical step toward resolving this dispute.
