Ogbu has appended his signature to a four-year deal that will keep him at RBK until the end of the 2021 season, following a successful trial.
Speaking after penning the contract, the 18-year-old said to the club's official website : ''I have had a great time in the club. It was a bit unusual at first, but it's gotten better every time I've been here.
''I think this is a very nice step for me in my career. My dream is now coming true. Right now I'm just very happy. ''
For the upcoming season, the former Nigeria U17 captain will play with the number 30 jersey.
