Tolentino later became the province's vice governor after the disqualification of Gerardo Noveras on administrative charges in July 2023. In February 2024, he became acting governor after Christian Noveras was suspended.[5][6] He became full-time governor after Noveras was finally ordered dismissed by the Ombudsman in April 2024.
