Before becoming the presidential candidate of the People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) in the March 2020 general election, Ali was a member of parliament (MP) and the minister of housing.
After months of legal challenges regarding the integrity of the election and even a consequential recount of all ballots, he was sworn in as Guyana’s tenth president on 2 August 2020.
