A sports enthusiast from Akwa Ibom, Odudu Otu, has won the 2021 Gulder Ultimate Search, Season 12. He beats three other contestants to emerge as the ultimate man in a 2021 edition of the contest yesterday evening.
Odudu won the contest with N50 million worth of prizes, including an SUV, as well as a return ticket to Dubai.
In addition to this, the organizers say he has become a role model for young Nigerians on the importance of taking up an opportunity and making the best use of it.
The Gulder Ultimate Search Season 12, tagged the ‘Age of Craftsmanship’, came to an end on Sunday evening.
The athlete, who hails from Akwa Ibom, made it to the top four and was only confirmed to join the rest on the unveiling day.

Not until the 14th task, Otu was an unassuming figure at the beginning until the later part of the show.
However, Otu did not have the puzzle-solving skills or the tact of other contestants. He seemed to just always do enough not to be evicted while staying in the shadows.
It was reported that more than 20,000 Nigerians applied for this season’s Gulder Ultimate Search regional selection process before those who made the longlist were sent to the Sea School. Ultimately, 20 names were shortlisted with 16 of them confirmed.
