With just 3 warriors remaining, DAMILOLA, DAMOLA, ODUDU journeys accross the river to find ‘AKOLO’s chest.
BOB MANUEL waits for them at the other end and introduces TOSIN EMIOLA who found a boomerang and voted back in by the viewers. (CHIDINMA OKEIBE’s vote was higher but due to health issues she couldn’t make it back to the search.)
The four enters the mangrove and their search begins, they find clues but not the chest and decided to take a break from the day’s search.
They find a shield, a spear, a gun and a hour glass.
TOSIN EMIOLA didn’t find a HOUR GLASS and thereby became evicted.
The remaining 3 unlocks a gate with their HOUR GLASS and crosses over to the other side.
Guest Anchor, BOB MANUEL ODOKWU crosses to the other side with them and tells them to drop all their artefacts except one of their choice.
DAMILOLA chooses the spear.
DAMOLA chooses the spear.
ODUDU chooses the shield.
Off they go. And called together again by BOB MANUEL who gives them their final instruction and they go running deeper into the forest.
The search intensifies as they use their bare hands to comb every bit and thorn in the forest.
Odudu finds a rope and pulls it out with a scream, behold it’s AKOLO’s chest! “All for one, One for all”, DAMILOLA & DAMOLA helps him to dig out the chest buried in the ground which he drags all the way to the river’s bank.
Anchor, TOKE MAKINWA shows up and tells him to open up the chest, he finds a mirror and a scroll from AKOLO saying:
