BROADCAST journalist Manuel 'Noli' De Castro has bid farewell to his home network ABS-CBN to return to politics after 11 years.

'Sorry to say na ito na ang huling araw ko sa Teleradyo.... at ako po ay makikipagsapalaran sa panibagong uri ng panunungkulan at public service, medyo itong pagkakataong ito ay mas malawak na po ang public service kung susuwertihin sa tulong po ninyo (Sorry to say this is my last day on Teleradyo, and I am going to try my luck in another field of governance and public service, only this would be wider, and hopefully, I can do it with your help),' De Castro said in his morning show on Thursday.
