217011810/2023/20The data uploaded on eSango consists of purposely selected government communication artefacts relevant to civil conflict. The sample consists of Facebook posts, press statements and news interview clips featuring various political figures from the government that were conducted with international media through “<i>call-in</i>” interviews published between the 1^st of June and the 31^st of July of 2021 to cover the peak of the crisis. The purposely selected government communication artefacts were examined through the lens of SCCT. This process involved transcribing the primary sources from the press conference and live call-in interviews held with key political figures communicating the dynamics of the civil conflict, press statements, and social media posts.
