The large size of iodine exerts a more polarising power to lithium as compared to fluorine and thus has more covalent character than fluorine.

HEY MATE HERE'S YOUR ANSWER ✌!
Although lithium is an alkali metal yet it's compounds., particularly halides, are slightly covalent in nature. This is because the Li* ion has small size and has maximum tendency to withdraw the electrons towards itself from the negative ion. ... Therefore, lithium halides are covalent in nature.
