Dennis Okike is the 10th Ultimate champion!

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 map 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. Edmund and
Ifunanya’s first clue led them to the Place of
the Talking Drum to retrieve the first map
piece; while Bobby and Dennis went to the Mud
Field. Subsequently, Bobby and Dennis headed to the Place of the Talking Drum for their
second piece while Edmund and Ifunanya raced
to the Mud Field. Edmund returned first, followed by
Ifunanya. Dennis edged Bobby out of the quest
when he beat him to the finish line. Bobby was
instantly evicted. With their maps pieced together, the remaining
warriors had all they needed to proceed to find
the Sceptre. On their maps three spots were
marked ‘X’ as possible places the 10th Symbol
was buried. Ifunanya was in the lead, having
figured out the direction first. However her first attempt at crossing the river with the aid
of a rope saw her falling into the water while
Edmund and Dennis moved on. Edmund arrived first and headed straight to
one of the spots marked on the map and began
his search. Dennis joined shortly. Ifunanya had
barely stepped in the river when Dennis raised
what turned out to be a false alarm. All he had
was a piece of debris laying under the river. The protracted search had the warriors
glancing at their maps intermittently as Dennis
kept digging up dirt after dirt from the river. After many futile efforts Dennis 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. For his feat, Dennis will win N10 million and a
brand new Mitsubishi Pajero 3.0L GLS AT( full
Option) courtesy of CFAO Motors Nigeria, the
official automotive partners of Gulder Ultimate

contestant standing, Ifunanya is already guaranteed N1 million in addition to her prize
money. In the same vein, Kalu Kalu, a final year student
of Industrial Mathematics in the Federal
University of Technology, Owerri, has emerged
as the first winner of the first ever fans edition
