After 28 years, Julius Babao bid goodbye to ABS-CBN.

Julius announced on Dec. 31 on “TV Patrol” that he is signing off as a Kapamilya news anchor.

On Sunday (Jan. 2), he will make his final broadcast on “TeleRadyo Balita.”

Julius began his career in broadcast journalism at ABS-CBN, where he embodied the company’s mission of service for 28 years by reporting on important national issues and events, producing unflinching exposés of abuses that benefited the helpless, and serving Filipinos in need of various types of assistance through his TV and radio programs.

"We respect his decision to pursue his professional career outside of ABS-CBN and wish him well in his future pursuits," the Kapamilya Network said in its statement released on New Year's Eve.

Unconfirmed report said that Julius will transfer to TV5 soon.
