VIDEO: GUS 10 Episode 4: Ezugo Spurs Spears to Victory

The roles of the two Gatekeepers – Ezugo Egwuagwu and Dominic Mudabai – were unveiled. They were to motivate and guide Contestants to win as many tasks as possible. The Gatekeepers each tossed a coin to choose the tribes they would mentor.

Ezugo picked the Spear Tribe which had lost their game the previous day. He reasoned that he could make winners out of them. Dominic went for Swords Tribe which he had described as the winning team.

The Spears however won Episode four’s challenge against the Swords Tribe after losing the day’s earlier task. The challenge was ‘Get the Food’. It entailed gathering puzzles and solving them. Four members of each tribe were to gather the puzzle (Gatherers) while the remaining two were to solve them (Solvers).

The Gatherers were to crawl underneath an obstacle, go up a palm tree and pluck down a sack containing the puzzles. They were then to crawl beneath the obstacle and deliver the puzzle sack on the table where the Solvers were waiting. There were four sacks, meaning that the four Gatherers on both sides were to pluck one sack each.

Anthony and Dennis were Solvers for the Spears Tribe while Edmond and Kunle were the Solvers for the Swords Tribe. At the outset of the challenge the Spears tribe suffered a setback after Peter’s round, owing to Martha’s inability to climb the tree and Ema’s fall from the tree. They however overcame the setback and the presence of their guardian Gatekeeper bolstered their confidence. Their reward was steaming hot Sharwarma and bananas: a welcome meal which assuaged their hunger.
