As was the first such motion filed August 1, 1977, movant’s second Rule 27.26, V.A. M.R., motion filed April 15, 1978, was overruled by the Circuit Court of Greene County without an evidentiary hearing and without appointment of counsel. In both instances, the court filed written “Court’s Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law and Judgment.” Movant did not appeal from the denial of his first motion as he has done relative to denial of his second motion.

*824From reading the two Rule 27.26 motions, supra, it is unclear as to whether movant’s concern was with the murder case, the stealing case or both. However, movant’s brief in this appeal makes it clear that his two Rule 27.26 motions pertain only to the second degree murder charge to which he pleaded guilty.
Upon this appeal, movant’s two points relied on read as follows:
“I. The lower court erred in not appointing an attorney to represent defendant/appellant when he filed his original 27.26 motion. A. Defendant/appellant filed his original 27.26 motion alleging that his guilty plea had not been voluntarily entered, which, though inartfully pleaded, presented an issue of fact. B. Under Rule 27.26(h) lower courts are required to appoint counsel for an indigent defendant if his motion presents an issue of fact. (Our emphasis).
II. The lower court erred when it held that the grounds stated by defendant/appellant, if new, could have been raised in the prior motion.” '
As to point I: It is certain that movant is complaining of alleged trial court error in failing to appoint counsel for him on his original or first Rule 27.26 motion. No appeal was taken from the denial of that motion. An appeal from denial of a separate and second Rule 27.26 motion is not the proper vehicle to employ in complaining of averred trial court error in another action which has terminated and become unviable for lack of an appeal. Hamilton v. State, 548 S.W.2d 267, 268[2] (Mo.App.1977). Moreover, no issue was presented and no claim was made in the second Rule 27.26 motion regarding the failure of the court nisi to appoint counsel to represent movant in his first motion. A ground for relief not contained in the Rule 27.26 motion may not be raised for the first time on appeal. Movant’s first point relied on is denied.
As to point II: In part, Rule 84.-04(d) requires that “[t]he points relied on shall state briefly and concisely what actions or rulings of the court are sought to be reviewed and wherein and why they are claimed to be erroneous.” Simply stating, as done in point II, what the alleged error is said to be without also pointing out “wherein and why” the action or ruling of the court is said to be erroneous does not satisfy the mandatory requirements of the rule nor preserve anything for appellate review. “Wherein and why” the court may have erred in its holding may be ascertained only by resorting to the argument portion of the brief which is something we are not required to do. Davis v. State, 573 S.W.2d 736, 738[3] (Mo.App.1978). Nevertheless, as can be seen by the answers in paragraph 8 of both motions, supra, movant summarily charged “Inadequit Council” (sic) in his first motion and “ineffective counsel” in the second. Any undertaking to differentiate between inadequate counsel and ineffective counsel would be tantamount to distinguishing Tweedledum from Tweedledee, a task beyond our judicial abilities.
Judgment affirmed.
All concur, except PREWITT, J., not participating because not a member of the court when cause was submitted.
