Abstract
Before the arrival of the Eurocentric education system to Africa, the Horn of Africa had a vibrant education pattern designed to cultivate religious and societal norms. With the arrival of the colonizers, the education system was significantly interrupted and replaced by British, French, and Italian education system in a fragmented manner. However, internal rivalry and geopolitics could not allow any colonial attempt to sync European education systems into society. As a result, the Indigenous system aborted, and Eurocentric education systems have not succeeded in shaping the nations as required. Besides, the Horn of Africa was and still is the most volatile sub-region because of its geopolitics and historical controversies over the colonial boundaries. The Djibouti and Somalia are among the Horn of Africa countries that are affected by the disruption of education systems.
