Lali shot into the limelight after he was linked to the death of Keroche heiress Tecra Muigai in May 2020 before he was vindicated. He was Tecra’s boyfriend.

His appointment comes after the Roots Party presidential candidate Prof. George Wajackoyah appointed Wilson Muirani Gathoni alias as Jaymo Ule Msee as his spokesperson and head of media.
