Wogu was top scorer (six goals) for Confluence Queens in the 2014 Nigeria Women Premier League season, which was her first season in the league.[3] In a 2017 Nigeria Women Premier League game between Rivers Angels and Heartland Queens, Wogu scored a goal to enable Angels retain the top position.[4] After showing fine form at home, Wogu missed chances that resulted to the end of Rivers Angels ten games home winning streak.[5]
Despite being part of the Nigeria qualification games for the 2014 African Women's Championship, Wogu was dropped by head coach, Edwin Okon in the final list.[6] However, in the 2016 edition, she made the squad, contributing an assist from the bench in her first game against Mali.[2]
