(i) Personality clash: One of the factors which contributed to the Action Group crisis of 1962 was the personality clash between Chief Obafemi Awolowo the party Leader and Chief Akintola his deputy party leader. Chief Awolowo saw chief Akintola as over ambitious and egocentric individual that wanted to supplant him as the leader of the party. This made Chief Awolowo to view his deputy, Chief Akintola as a traitor and perfidy personified who must be removed.

(ii) Power struggle: The allegation that Chief Awolowo who was the leader of opposition in the Federal House of Representatives wanted to be consulted as the party leader before any important policy decisions were to be taken by western regional government headed by Chief Akintola was another major cause of the crisis in Action Group. Chief Akintola and other officials of western regional government saw chief Awolowo as a political usurper.

(iii) Introduction of a new ideology into the party - democratic socialism: This innovation brought the party into two opposing camps. Democratic socialism demands mixed socialist economy, having the support of the radical group in the party. The conservatives were opposed to this ideology because it was in conflict with their interests which covered commercial and business sectors.

(iv)  Faction in decisions: The most conflicting issue that tore members of the Action Group into shreds was the question of whether or not the party should participate in the formation of the National Government at the federal level. The party was divided into two main factions. One was led by Chief Awolowo while others was headed by Chief Akintola. Chief Akintola’s group supported co-operation with NPC – controlled federal government, but the Chief Awolowo group did not want to have anything to do with NPC, instead preferred a progressive alliance with the NCNC in order to root out NPC from power.

(v) Decision to abolish the post of a Deputy leader for the party, remove Chief Akintola as the premier of western Region and also dismiss Chief Ayo Rosiji, as the secretary of the party at the federal level. Chief S.L. Akintola, was found guilty of bad-administration, anti-party activities, disloyalty and gross indiscipline and therefore should be removed. The majority of party members in the Western Regional House of Assembly passed a vote of no confidence in the premier and presented same to the Governor, Sir Adesoji Aderemi. The Governor then had to remove Chief Akintola as the premier and he appointed Alhaji D. S. Adegbenro, the parliamentary leader in the House as the new premier. The Regional House met to ratify the decision of the executive, but turmoil broke out resulting in a free-for-all fight. It was alleged that supporters of Akintola started the fight; this was a strategy to prevent the normal conduct of the House affairs. The Police was called in and with teargas dispersed the members of the House.

(vi) The reinstatement of Chief Akintola as the Premier led to his formation of a new party called United Progressive Party (UPP) and with an alliance with some members of NCNC, formed a coalition government in the region. UPP and NCNC later became Nigerian National Democratic Party (NNDP). Justice G.B.A. Coker was appointed to head a commission of inquiry to investigate allegations of maladministration and misappropriation of public funds in some public corporations in the Region and at the end of the investigation, Chief Akintola, was not found guilty of such. The excising of Mid-west Region from the Western Region was another factor that led to the crises in Action Group. It should be of note that the A.G. never supported this action.
