Mohamed continued his primary and intermediate formal education from Sheikh Madar and Biyo Dha'ay schools soon after Somaliland restored its sovereignty from the union with Somalia in 1991. Mohamed studied business administration and project management at local colleges in Hargeisa. He later moved to the United Kingdom for his higher education where he studied political science, security studies, and international development and philosophy.[1]
