Probably around AD 157/8 Rufus Lollianus was appointed the Proconsular governor of Africa; his "legatus proconsularis" was Gaius Vibius Gallio Claudius Severus. During his next appointment as "Legatus Augusti pro praetore" (or imperial governor) of Bithynia et Pontus in 159, he was confronted by Lucian about prosecuting Alexander of Abonoteichus; Rufus Lollianus demurred, claiming not only was Lucian's case weak, but that Alexander's patron, Publius Mummius Sisenna Rutilianus, was too influential to overcome. Around AD 162, he was assigned a special task when the emperor Lucius Aurelius Verus left for the Parthian campaign.
