Software engineer, robotics developer, EdTech innovator, and AI builder - a documented record of one builder's evolution from idea to execution to impact.
From a very young age, David stood out academically - consistently top of his class and excelling in science, including perfect scores in physics at Calvary Comprehensive School, Port Harcourt.
By ages 6-8 he was experimenting with building blocks and toys. At 10-11, he created comics and invented new paper toy games that inspired his community peers.
At 12-13, David built his first powered car and robot, sketching designs inspired by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Art Attack, cyborgs, and rockets. Creativity thrived despite social challenges that taught early independence.
By 14-15, he conducted ambitious science experiments - once removed from the lab for bold, risky agricultural mixture work - fueling a lifelong curiosity.

At 16, David graduated at the top of his class - perfect scores in physics and biology, roughly 87% overall average - marking an academic peak.
That same year he launched CBL, a youth entertainment startup combining dance, comedy, and drama. As CEO and tech lead, the group performed widely before parting over vision differences - planting the seed of entrepreneurship.

CBL showcased talents across venues and gained local popularity. Though the group eventually split, the experience embedded core lessons in leadership, team execution, and vision alignment.

Ages 17-18 brought isolation, relocation, and significant personal challenges - including a brief time at Obafemi Awolowo University that ended due to circumstances beyond his control.
Through faith, reading, journaling, and creative outlets, he rebuilt his vision and personal philosophy - forging the resilience that would define his next chapter.
Reflection and personal transition (ages 17-18)
At 19 he reignited his passion - winning a talent show (a house model project in the COZA Talent Hunt) and using the prize money to launch tech ventures. He completed a smart home project and began coding seriously.
By 20 he founded a coding school, teaching 60+ students while building phone-controlled cars, Python applications, and desktop software.

David sharpened his skills through intense hackathons, consistently placing in the top ranks. One standout moment was a competition organized by PipeOps, where his robot "Bernard" secured recognition and prize money among hundreds of participants.
These events validated his technical abilities, opened new connections, and fueled momentum for future ventures like Farmket & Zeylo.

David started WittyHub, also known as SpectraForge Solutions - a digital studio building websites, apps, and digital solutions for people and businesses.
The studio has served more than 14 clients and delivered 5 projects in Abuja, helping individuals and small businesses bring their ideas online.

As the recognized visionary in his church youth ministry, David built systems, teams, drama crews, and a football team - growing participation dramatically through bold moves and decisive teamwork.
He sits in core leadership and credits success to assembling the right teams, decisiveness, and action over perfectionism.
Youth group leadership and community building
David founded Tech Ignite - a hands-on technology bootcamp designed to introduce secondary-school students to practical software development, robotics, and problem-solving through real-world projects. He has trained and mentored dozens of students, building foundational technical skills and innovation mindsets for Africa's emerging tech ecosystem.
He also co-founded Farmket - an agrotech e-commerce platform improving agricultural accessibility, market reach, and digital adoption for farmers and agro-businesses in Nigeria.

In 2026, David co-leads Farmket and is developing Zeylo - a trust infrastructure platform for African digital markets.
With a core team of developers and researchers, he documents processes rigorously and iterates relentlessly - building infrastructure that can scale across Africa's healthcare sector.
Current focus: Zeylo trust infrastructure platform
David's ultimate purpose is to preserve humanity's future - building AI and robotics systems to accompany us in space as we face planetary challenges.
Solving Africa's immediate problems in robotics, AI, software, and IoT while dreaming on a cosmic scale. An empire for preservation. A legacy for the continent and beyond.
Vision: AI & robotics for humanity's long-term future
