The presidency has described the ‘Resume or Resign’ group as an illegal lot formed to frustrate the ongoing fight against corruption in the country.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, stated this when he addressed members of the Centre for Civil Society and Justice (CCSJ) at the precincts of the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja, on Thursday.

Members of the Centre, a civil society coalition, staged a rally in support of President Muhammadu Buhari, who has been on medical vacation in London since May 7.

According to the presidential aide, any attempt to derail the war against corruption using subterfuge and bluff will not succeed.

”It might be taken for granted that the beneficiaries of the old order are fighting back. We have been warned that corruption will fight back,” he said.
