Philippa Karsera Christodoulides, wife of the President of the Republic, has announced her resignation from the Committee of the Independent Welfare Office, following the uproar caused by the posting of the controversial video. In a post on social media, she denounces a “relentless attack” on NGOs and her own family, with the spread of false news and defamatory comments. Ms. Karsera states that her decision is not due to a lack of willingness to contribute, but to the need to protect the integrity of her family and prevent the defamation of the Office. She will inform the Management Committee of the Office of her decision at an emergency meeting tomorrow, Monday.
