Nduka Morrisson Ozokwo (born 25 December 1988) is a Nigerian footballer who most recently played for Ankaragücü in the Turkish Süper Lig.[1]
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.
