Biography Ale attended Toomua Primary School and Samoa College, before finishing his education at Whangarei Boys High School in New Zealand. He subsequently studied at the University of the South Pacific and earned a master's degree in history and political studies at the University of Auckland. After regaining his seat in the 1976 elections, he was elected Speaker. He was re-elected in 1979 but lost the vote for the Speakership to Tuuu Faletoese by a margin of 24 votes to 23.

Following the elections, he was a founder member of the Human Rights Protection Party and its first deputy leader. In September 1981 he was dismissed from the Legislative Assembly for having sexual relations and fathering a child with a woman other than his wife. He was subsequently jailed for perjury.

He was allowed to contest the 1982 elections, but was defeated by Lauofo Meti. After losing to Meti again in 1985, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly in 1988. He was later suspended from the Legislative Assembly for a year after failing to substantiate claims that the Prime Minister had stolen cutlery. He attempted a comeback in the 2006 elections, but finished second to Fonotoe Pierre Lauofo. However, he died later the same month, and was given a state funeral.
