Popular Mayo broadcaster Johnny Oosten is back on the airwaves after a long absence.

The talented presenter marked his return by presenting the J.O Breakfast Show from 9 to 11 a.m. on Community Radio Castlebar (CFCfm) this morning, much to the delight of his dedicated followers.

But he is now back to full health and listeners of the county-based radio station are thrilled with the news of his broadcasting comeback.

Said Johnny: "I have been blown away by the wonderful response I have received from people all over the country, including Kerry, Ballymena and Belfast.

"I will be presenting my show from Monday to Friday every week and people are welcome to send their requests to me via Whatsapp on 086-3876036.

"It's great to be back."
