Prince Harry's Resignation from Sentebale
Prince Harry steps down from Sentebale, the charity he co-founded in 2006 with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho to help African orphans, amid internal disputes.
About Sentebale:
- Founded in 2006 to combat poverty and AIDS in Lesotho and Botswana.
- Established in memory of Princess Diana.
Sophie Chandauka, a Zimbabwe-born lawyer, was at the center of the conflict after being appointed as chair of the board. Allegations of misconduct and cover-ups have surfaced, leading to a legal battle.
Chandauka has accused the charity of a 'cover-up,' citing weak leadership, abuse of power, bullying, harassment, misogyny, and discrimination against black women.
