Chukwude's education began at St. John's Nursery/Primary School in Odoakpu, and he furthered his studies at Metu Memorial Secondary School in the same locale. His passion for football took him to Morning Stars Football Academy in Onitsha, where he honed his skills and set his sights on a future in the sport.

EDITOR'S PICKS

Stpehen Chukwude is a productive striker who capitalizes on little chances and converting them into game changing scenarios such as goals, shots, shot on targets, corner kicks and saves. The forward boasted of the most forced shots in his first few games of the 2021/2022 season before his unfortunate 4 months injury with defending champions Akwa United.

When not scoring, he creates room for his attacking midfielders through runs into the box which is one of the smart movements he makes in games inwhich most managers love in a high pressing game. His style of play in match day 2 and 4 precisely of the 21/22 and 22/23 season respectively earned him the accolade of NPFL TransferMarket striker of the week.
