Trevor Noah is quitting as the host of The Daily Show, saying his "time is up" after seven years on the famous late-night talk show, reports Sky News.
The South African comedian took over from fellow US comedian Jon Stewart in September 2015.
Thanking his audiences in the studio, at home, and around the world, he labelled the decision to hire him for the Comedy Central show in the first place "crazy".
Noah joked: "I remember when we first started, so many people didn't believe in us - it was a crazy bet to make. I still think it was a crazy choice. This random African, bringing a Chinese guy from Malaysia."
