From 2005 to 2007 he played in the Turkish Süper Lig, returning to German Bundesliga team Rostock in August 2007.

After a season with Greek club Skoda Xanthi the Nigerian striker has signed for Anorthosis Famagusta.
On 27 December 2009, he was arrested at Schiphol airport near Amsterdam for carrying fake passports.[2]
