British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's senior adviser on race is to resign amid the intense debate over Downing Street's controversial report on racial disparities in Britain, reported Xinhua, quoting local media on Thursday.
Samuel Kasumu, Johnson's special adviser for civil society and communities, will leave his role in May and has informed colleagues of his decision on Wednesday, sources confirmed to British media.
News of his departure emerged the day after the British government released a report which concluded that there was no evidence of institutional racism in Britain.
