The following day, Ogie made his debut for the club, playing 39 minutes in a 1–0 FA Trophy win against Blyth Spartans.[4] In March 2019, Ogie was loaned out to Isthmian League club Bishop's Stortford,[5] making seven appearances and scoring once.[6]
Following Leyton Orient's promotion back into the English Football League, Ogie's first appearance of the 2019–20 season came in a 2–0 EFL Trophy win against Southend United.[2]
