Club career

Born in Enugu, Nigeria, Ozokwo began his career at local side Enugu Rangers. He moved to French outfit OGC Nice, signing a one-year contract shortly before the transfer window for summer 2007 closed.[2] At the Côte d'Azur club he played alongside compatriot Onyekachi Apam, also a former Enugu Rangers player.

Nice choose not to renew his contract in the summer of 2009, so Ozokwo returned to Enugu Rangers for the remainder of the year.[3]

In January 2010, he joined TFF First League side Boluspor on a six-month contract.

International career

Represented his country in the 2007 African Youth Championship where his team were runners up to Congo.

Following this he captained the side in the 2007 U-20 World Cup in Canada where he wore the number nine shirt as the team exited in the quarter-finals.

gollark: With a fallback to probably `~/.local/share/craftos-pc` if the XDG one is unset.
gollark: `sudo pacman -S humor`
gollark: Alternatively, `split`/`join`, `characters`/whatever else.
gollark: Well, I missed it.
