Career

Elejiko started his career in the Stationary Stores in Lagos. In the summer of 1999 he took part in a trial training session with the Spanish second division club FC Málaga . He passed this and, after completing the medical test, moved to the Spanish club, but did not get beyond the role in the amateur team and therefore moved to the German Football League Northeast in July 2000 at FSV Wacker 90 Nordhausen . After a year in the Northeast Football League , Elejiko decided to move to Belgium to join the Derde Class A team at KV Turnhout . There he completed twenty games in a year and a half and scored one goal before joining the KVC Westerlo from the Eerste Division in January 2003 . At Westerlo he quickly developed into a top performer and played with the club in the UEFA Cup , among others . Elejiko stayed with KVC Westerlo for four years and played 70 games until he moved to Royal Antwerp in June 2007.

In the summer of 2008 he followed an offer from the Portuguese first division club SC Beira-Mar . After playing only one game in the first half of the 2008/2009 season due to injury, he moved back to Belgium for KMSK Deinze in the spring of 2009 . He signed a contract until the end of the season and came to 14 games for Deinze by the end of the season. After his contract expired, he decided to switch to first class at KV Red Star Waasland . After the contract expired in June 2010, Elejiko was initially without a club, before he joined Merksem SC from Eerste Provinciale Antwerp in 2011 .
