A small, slow blog about faith, logic, and culture.
Written by David Ayodeji Towoju — husband, father, thinker, believer — from a small desk in Abuja, Nigeria.
I’m David Towoju, though many people know me as Deji Towoju. If we met through family you probably know me as Deji. If we met through school, work or online, you probably know me as David.
I’m a software engineer who builds WordPress products and works remotely with teams around the world. I also enjoy building businesses around software and turning ideas into products.
Before writing code full time, I studied law, was called to the Nigerian Bar, and briefly practised as a solicitor in a government owned bank. Today, alongside software, I’m studying theology through the Master of Arts in Biblical and Theological Studies program at Gulf Theological Seminary, Dubai.
I live in Abuja, Nigeria, with my precious wife, Elizabeth, and our three children.
Unzipped is where the different parts of my life meet.
Technology taught me to think carefully. Law trained me to weigh arguments. Theology taught me to ask deeper questions about truth, meaning, and Scripture. This is where I bring those worlds together.
I write about faith, logic, and culture, trying to understand everyday events through a biblical lens with careful reasoning and intellectual honesty. Sometimes the essays are theological. Sometimes they're cultural. Sometimes they're simply an attempt to think more clearly.
The name Unzipped reflects the purpose of the site.
