With the victory, the Abia State native has won N10m and a brand new Mitsubishi Pajero.
The guy that had initially said he
intended to establish a successful international import and export
business outsmarted Edmund Umeabuani and Ifunanya Onike in the waters of
the Usaka River, where the battle for the ultimate symbol held.
But it is a fair story for Onike, too, as she is the Last Female Standing, winning an added one million naira.
Also, a final year student of
Industrial Mathematics in the Federal University of Technology, Owerri,
Kalu Kalu, emerged the first winner of the first ever fans edition of
the Gulder Ultimate Search.
Kalu also won a brand new Mitsubishi
Pajero 3.0L GLX MT, courtesy of CFAO Motors, the automotive partner of
Gulder Ultimate Search 10.
He says, “I feel very happy to be the
first winner of the first GUS Fans’ Edition; the first ‘Ultimate
Conqueror’. It is a dream come true. My friends started calling me
Ultimate Conqueror when I told them I was coming for the search. I took
the risk of a night journey to get here for the search and it was very
stressful. I can’t explain how I feel right now.”
A statement from the organisers gives
details of the last scene of the competition. According to them, on the
final day of the search, the warriors got a message from the ‘Council of
Elders’ ordering them to pack their bags and make their ways to where
they draw water.
“Chidi awaited them and gave them the next set of instructions.
The final task was to search for the 10th symbol.
To do that, each of them would make use
of a clue which would take them to two different locations to retrieve
two pieces of the m ap that would lead to where the 10th symbol was
buried. Another clue at their first locations would direct them to the
next location. It was a race against time and the last man to the next
location was evicted.
“After many futile efforts Daniel
eventually dug up the sceptre from under a slant palm tree in the river
and thereby ended the long search for the 10th symbol.
“He was instantly inducted into the Order of Heroes as the 10th Ultimate Man by Chidi Mokeme, the anchor-man.”
