Aden stamps used in Dar-Es-Salaam / Tanganyika

Is it unusual to find an Aden stamp used in Dar-Es-Salaam / Tanganyika?

Aden stamps were well established when Tanganyika existed between 1961 and 1964 so the dates match. Stamps did get used across the empire when there was a printed shortage, but usually with an overprint. It is unusual, but not impossible.

I think the time period in question refers to

"Tanganyika (territory) was a territory administered by the United Kingdom from 1916 until 1961"

Tanganyika was a country between 1961 and 1964.
