Gulder Ultimate Search Season 9: Episode 8 (Unified In Hunger, Divided Over Dishes)

The Council of Elders decided to smile on the remaining 10 contenders by giving them what they craved for several days: food! Earlier in the day, Paschal Ojezele and Udodi Priscillia were rewarded with a cooking pot and cow brain for emerging victorious in the day’s task.

The cooking of the rice and vegetable meal was peaceful, while an argument ensued between Adah James and Bornford Patience over the distribution of cutlery; which was actually carved out of bamboo. Bornford felt not all the contenders should have access to the cutlery, since not all partook in the carving.

After tempers flared, all contenders settled down to have a peaceful meal and even sang themselves to sleep. Perhaps they learnt lessons from the day’s task – Raise Your Flag.

The game involved fitting braces on two long bamboo sticks to make ladders. The contenders were then required to climb up the ladder, and cut an artificial weight to raise up their flags. The contenders had to compete in pairs. To get to the ladders, the contenders had to go through an obstacle course which involved running under ropes, passing through a wooden maze and walking over a beam to get to where the braces were kept.They would then climb the ladder to the platform and the first team to raise the flag won the task.

Uzor Osimpka described the game in her words: “The detailed account of today’s task was death. I thought I was going to die. Earlier today, I said yesterday’s task was the most tedious. I was wrong. Today’s task took the cake, the icing and the knife. I fell during one of the times that we had to run back to get the braces to build our ladder. And I fell chest first on the beam, on the log. And that helped in slowing me down besides the fact that I was already slowed down because it was a lot of work being connected to somebody else and you had to run within a short space, run together at the same time, get the log at the same time, do everything together at the same time. Nobody should ever come and say anything about Gulder Ultimate Search being an adventure. It’s more than that. They have no idea. Today’s task was crazy.”
