Okiki has played in three test games for Talleres and has won some section of the fans over with his all action style of play, which made him a feared force in the Nigeria Professional League before his move abroad.

Prior to leaving for Argentina, he scored 13 goals in the Nigerian league for Sunshine Stars and despite leaving the club two months ago, he still remains their top scorer.
