= 2021 slipper case
=Bosita gained public attention in March 2021 when he was featured in a viral video disputing a Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) traffic enforcer's decision to issue a ticket to a couple riding a motorcycle for violating a shoes-only policy. The driver was wearing shoes, but the backseat passenger, a woman, was penalized for wearing slippers, causing her to miss a day of work. Bosita argued that the policy should only apply to the driver and demanded that the enforcer pay the backseat passenger's salary for the day, which amounted to around ₱500. This led to MMDA traffic czar Edison Bong Nebrija accusing Bosita of exploiting traffic enforcers for political gain.
In February 2022, Bosita was arrested in Surigao del Sur in connection with the March 2021 incident after charges of grave coercion and usurpation of authority were filed against him by Nebrija. He posted bail for both charges.
= Online presence
=Bosita runs a YouTube channel under the name "Colonel Bosita, RSAP" as part of his work with RSAP. In April 2021, he received a Silver Play Button after his channel surpassed 348,000 subscribers, well beyond the minimum requirement of 100,000 subscribers. As of May 2022, Bosita has gained a following of 800,000 on Facebook.
Political career
Following the March 2021 incident, Bosita decided to enter politics, initially planning to run for Senator. His group partnered with the Bicol-based motorcycle club 1-Rider, which aimed to gain partylist representation in the House of Representatives. Bosita was named second nominee of the group, although he was actively involved in 1-Rider's campaign, frequently appearing in videos and other election materials. 1-Rider garnered enough votes to secure two seats, which were filled by Rodge Gutierrez and Bosita himself.
In October 2024, Bosita filed his certificate of candidacy for the 2025 Philippine Senate election, running as an independent candidate. His platform focuses on road safety and the rights of motorcycle riders.
Personal life
Bosita is married to Aida Mauzar. He resides in Silang, Cavite as of 2024.
