Ezeh had his internship training at Jos University Teaching Hospital, Plateau State, where he developed a deep understanding of patient care and fostered meaningful connections with patients. He had his mandatory NYSC programme at the Jericho Nursing Home, Ibadan, Oyo State.

After his youth service in March 2008, the young and enthusiastic Ezeh came back to Lagos immediately, with several opportunities presenting themselves to him.
