24 Oras Northern Mindanao, formerly Testigo Northern Mindanao, is the regional news broadcast of GMA Network in the Northern Mindanao region. It premiered on February 5, 2013 weeks after the launching of the regional station GMA Northern Mindanao.[1] The program delivers news and current events coming from Northern Mindanao, Caraga, parts of Zamboanga Peninsula (including Isabela City, Jolo and Bongao) and Central Mindanao (including Cotabato City). It airs live every weekdays from GMA Northern Mindanao studios.
Following changes of its now-main newscast 24 Oras, Testigo Northern Mindanao was rebranded as 24 Oras Northern Mindanao effective November 10, 2014.[2]
