Police in Cross River State move to stop separate political supporter confrontations in Calabar, preventing violence during campaign activity. Reports say officers intervened after supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) faced rival groups linked to other political movements during events in the city.

All three outlets describe the same day and place—Calabar—where security operatives step in as large groups gather. Vanguard and Daily Post Nigeria focus on a possible clash involving supporters associated with Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso and a large APC group during a campaign walk. The Punch describes an intervention to avert a confrontation between APC and NDC supporters, alongside a separate face-off involving those groups during rallies.

While the core theme is police preventing clashes among political supporters, the outlets differ in which named political figures or parties are emphasised and in whether the reported confrontation is framed as involving NDC specifically or movements connected to Obi and Kwankwaso. The incidents are presented as security interventions during election-related campaigning.
