?Why I was evicted from GUS?

Evictee-Goodluck?I WAS not prepared for this kind of task. I was thinking that it would be more physical than this. I?m not happy at all about my poor performance.? Those were the parting words of the first-ever mobile policeman to compete in Gulder Ultimate Search, Corporal Goodluck Ohio, as he was evicted from the on-going edition of Nigeria?s first and longest-running local content reality TV show.

?Understanding MOPOL?, as he was fondly called by fellow contestants in Batch B of GUS 8, was shown the way out, after he came last in the second task.

For the second task, each of the contestants was required to walk from one tree stump to another using a log of wood. After successfully walking on the tree stumps, they would then run through the forest, avoiding obstacles of rocks and tree trunks, amongst others, until they got the 10 discs arranged in a particular order. Each disc had symbols painted on them. They were to memorize the arrangement of the disc and run back to the starting point, using the log as usual to cross the stumps to the starting point. They were required to replicate the arrangement of the discs with a set of new discs provided for them. Falling off from the log of wood would mean going back to the starting line. Failure to replicate the discs in the precise order of their arrangement would also mean going back again to the original arrangement of the discs.

It was a task that tested the contenders? speed, mental alertness, memory and balance. Corporal Ohio, from MOPOL 23, Keffi, Obalende, Lagos, however trailed fellow contestants in this task, hence his eviction. He blamed his loss on his erroneous impression that the tasks would require only physical strength.

Believing he has let down the Mobile Police community through his eviction, he begged for their understanding. ?I will send a message to my fellow MOPOLs.
