Veteran showbiz scribe Lolit Solis has revealed that GMA Network did not renew the contract of television host Willie Revillame for his popular game show.


Earlier, GMA announced that Revillame's contract is set to end on the 15th of this month, while his “Wowowin” show will air until Friday, Feb. 11.



The same day of the announcement, pictures of Willie along with the billionaire businessman Manny Villar went viral, igniting rumors that the television host will transfer his game show to Advanced Media Broadcasting Systems, a television station owned by Villar.



Recall that Villar will take over the television broadcast frequencies previously used by ABS-CBN, as confirmed by The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) early this year.



On Instagram, Lolit wrote: "Unfair naman sabihin na umalis si Willie Revillame sa GMA7 Salve. The truth is hindi ni renew ang contract niya, infact nagbigay statement ang GMA7 na wala ng contract sa kanila si Willie kaya wish nila ito ng goodluck sa anuman endeavor na papasukin niya."



"Walang paghahabol na naganap, walang alok na ibinigay, basta end of contract, iyon na. Palagay ko nga hindi akalain ni Willie Revillame na wala ng alok para sa renewal kaya hindi nagawa na makipag ayos muna sa kung saan niya gusto lumipat," she added. "Siguro nga ikinabigla ng lahat iyon mga pangyayari, pero ang maliwanag, tinapos ng GMA7 ang kontrata kay Willie at walang alok na bago kaya hayun, kailangan maghanap ng bagong bahay ang programa niya."



"Huwag ng ibahin pa ang istorya na dahil may Villar kaya umalis si Willie. Talagang tinapos ng GMA7 ang programa niya at hinayaan siya maghanap ng kung saan siya gagawa ng show. Goodluck Willie Revillame, Tutok to Win, gawin mong winner. Bongga!!"


Meanwhile, long-time dancer and choreographer of the game show, Anna Feliciano, seemingly confirmed that they'll be transferring network.



Note that on her Facebook, she shared GMA's statement and wrote: "When something ends, something starts. Sana hindi nyo kami iwan. (heart emoji)."



Then in another post, she thanked Villar and daughter Camille for the visit.
