Sharmarkee and Egal expanded the cabinet after criticizing Hussen for doing so.
Evidence
Ironically, Sharmarkee and Egal had been the most caustic critics of Hussen for marginally expanding his cabinet in 1964. They took Hussen to task for exceeding the constitutionally set cabinet size, but from their new vantage point the constitutional limit set for the cabinet size was secondary to the political prerogatives of the time. — Abdi Ismail Samatar, Africa’s First Democrats, 978
