Career

Ukah arrived at Queens Park Rangers F.C. (QPR) in the summer of 2005. In May 2006, QPR announced that Ukah had joined the Italian club Nuorese Calcio on a three year contract. However, in November 2006, Ukah was suddenly listed as being back at QPR, with no explanation from the club. He was finally released from his contract and left the club in January 2007. Ukah then moved to Widzew Łódź in Poland. In April 2011 Ukah was suspended indefinitely from first team duties after he was convicted of driving under the influence.[1]

Ukah who was born and raised in Parma, Italy stated that his family was very excited after he made his debut for the Eagles in Kaduna against Zambia. The 27-year old player see was first invited by coach Samson Siasia, but he never got his chance until the Kaduna game. [[2]]
