Southport midfielder Karl Ledsham praised Poku's contribution when he told the Liverpool Echo "Godfrey is a great lad and has done an unbelievable job, considering he'd not had many games for Luton. But you look at him and wonder how he didn't get in their team because he has brought so much to us and our midfield. He has won games by himself and has picked the lads up when we've been down in games. He's carried a couple of lads as well and has been an unbelievable signing."

Quote from then Luton Town manager Richard Money in the wake of Poku's first start for the club in a 5–0 win over York City on 18 January 2011

Poku made his first league start in a 5–0 win over York City on 18 January 2011, and was praised by manager Richard Money, who called him "highly interesting" and that he could be "really pleased" with his performance. Over the course of the 2010–11 season, he made a total of 19 appearances in Luton colours.

On 26 August 2011, Poku was loaned to Conference Premier side Southport for six months as part of the transfer that took Southport midfielder John Paul Kissock to Luton. He made a strong impression in his first games for The Sandgrounders, with captain Alan Moogan saying, "[Poku is] a good player. He wants to get on the ball, puts a foot in and he's all over the pitch... it's really good playing with him."

On 5 January 2010 Poku was signed on a free transfer by Conference Premier club Luton Town, along with fellow St Albans player JJ O'Donnell. Poku was highly rated by St Albans manager Steve Castle, who pleaded with him to stay at the club, and had been attracting interest from Championship side Swansea City. On 30 January, Poku and O'Donnell were loaned back to St Albans for one month. He made six further appearances for The Saints before returning to Kenilworth Road.

Poku made his Luton debut the next season on 2 October 2010 in a league match away at Barrow, coming on as a substitute, but only after making the bench because Adam Newton picked up an injury during the warm-up. Mike Simmonds of Luton Today reported after the match that "Poku in particular was highly impressive during his brief spell on the pitch, breaking up Barrow attacks and as he grew into the game, showing an eye for a pass too." Speaking after Poku's professional debut, Luton's then-manager Richard Money said, "he gave the team a lift in that crucial 15 to 20 minutes. I was really pleased with his debut."

He made two further league substitute appearances in wins over Eastbourne Borough and Forest Green Rovers, before signing a two-year contract extension in November 2010.

Born in the Newham, London, Poku was educated at nearby Redbridge College under the guidance of Andy Russell. In February 2009, he was offered a scholarship to Fort Lewis College in Colorado, United States, having impressed scouts at an invitational football tournament at Preston College in Phoenix, Arizona the previous year. Poku chose to turn down the offer, instead preferring to pursue a full-time career in English football, and joined Conference South side St Albans City for the beginning of the 2009–10 season. He made his St Albans debut on 19 September 2009 against Weymouth. He played in 14 further games for St Albans, scoring a 25-yard goal in the return fixture against Weymouth. During his time at the club, Poku had trials with Football League clubs Reading, Leyton Orient and Southend United.
