Ndah joined Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) side Remo Stars during the 2018–19 season on a two-year contract.
On 25 January 2020, Akwa United officially announced the acquisition of Ndah on a two-year deal.
The 24-year-old won the Nigerian Professional Football league title with Akwa United, his first silverware with the club.
On the 26th of August 2021 he was announced as a new Orlando Pirates player.
He has appeared for the U-23 Eagles and was a member of the Super Eagles squad to the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

Where are all these Ndah haters? Ndi Olisa Ndah doesn’t have movement, Ngwa Olisa Ndah is not yet super Eagles material. William Troost Ekong is far better than Ndah my foot… Ndah is doing well for himself. Just because he plays in South Africa doesn’t mean anything. Heaven bless Ndah and all deserving Super Eagles players. Lolzzzz ZA ZA ZA ZA
Wish him the best, hope he gets his chance. His ceiling is quite high. I am thankful, we have a new gaffer, hope he hands Ndah a chance and hope he is not sentimental like his predecessors.
Well said Brotherman. You are one of the few people that make me visit this platform. You have an eye for talent. Lolzzzz.
