Alozie made her international debut for Nigeria on 10 June 2021 as a 65th-minute substitution in a 0–1 friendly loss to Jamaica.

 The game was part of the 2021 US Summer Series taking place in Houston where Alozie was training with the Dash. 

She was named to Nigeria's roster by national team manager Randy Waldrum after one random training session with the team the day prior, as the coach was faced with a serious scarcity of players to compete in the series.

 In Nigeria's second game of the series against Portugal, Alozie scored her first (and so far her only) goal for Nigeria in an enthralling 3-3 draw.

On June 16, 2023, Alozie was named to the 23-player Nigerian squad for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.

 In the 87th minute of that game, Alozie was involved in an infamous incident that went viral. 

She had successfully won the ball off England forward Lauren James but was fouled and stamped on by James, who was subsequently sent off for violent conduct after a VAR intervention, receiving a two-game ban.
