The answer to this question is wrong. The Action Group(AG), National Council Nigerian and the Camerouns(which was later changed to the National Council of Nigerian Citizens, when the Cameroon ceased to be part of Nigeria) (NCNC), the Northern Elements Progressive Union (NEPU) and United Middle Belt Congress (UMBC) all merged to form the United Progressive Grand Alliance (UPGA) for the 1964 general elections.
all parties in the first republic entered into alliance in order to contest the 1964 federal election. The United Progressive Grand Alliance (UPGA) being one of the two alliances consisted of the Northern People's Element(NEPU) and the United Middle Belt Congress (UMBC). The other alliance known as the Nigerian National Alliance (NNA) consisted of the Northern People's Congress (NPC), Nigeria Democratic Party (NNDP), Mid-western Democratic Front (MWDF) and the Niger-Delta Democratic Front(NDC)
