Omar Lali has revealed how Keroche CEO fought his relationship with her daughter Tecra Muigai.
According to Lali, when the late Tecra took him to meet his parents, his mother opposed the relationship and at some point referred to him as an Alshabaab.
"When Tecra took me to her family, they didn't want to hear anything about me. Her mother told me there is no way her daughter was going to live with an Alshabab terrorist. But I have since forgiven her since she is old school she probably didn't mean it," Lali narrated.
"At one point she came home with a convoy of six cars and I decided to escape because I was afraid of the people she was bringing," he added.

Feud Resolved
The feud was finally resolved after Tecra's brother, James Muigai convinced their father, Joseph Karanja, to bless the union between the unconventional lovers.
"Mzee blessed us and the feud stopped. We toured the world and I was able to teach her to overcome her fears. The only thing, regrettably, that I failed to teach her was regulation of alcohol intake," the fisherman said.
"She used to drink a lot and I pleaded with her to only drink after sunset but she would respond by telling that her family was in the family business and drinking was their tradition which I must respect as she respected mine," he recalled.
