  Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, Nigeria's Central Bank Governor, appears unable to shake off a report that he funneled public funds to Maryam Yaro, a married mistress whom he gave a job at the bank he oversees.
 Premium Times was first to report the scandal in which Mr. Sanusi was accused of abusing his office in order to advance an amorous relationship with a woman.
 Several sources told SaharaReporters that Premium Times has been under intense pressure from associates of the CBN Governor since the expose was published. In the wake of the report, the CBN also issued a widely circulated rebuttal claiming that Ms. Yaro was never a staff of the bank, that she was employed at Nigeria Incentive-based Risk Sharing Systems For Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL), and that the governor had no hand in her recruitment.
 But records obtained by SaharaReporters suggest that the bank's claims are an attempt to muddle up the facts. NIRSAL, to which Ms. Yaro is attached, is a special purpose vehicle (SPV) set up by the Federal Government through a partnership between the CBN and the Federal Ministry of Agriculture. Besides, the project is domiciled in the Development Finance Department of the CBN.

A Michigan high school math teacher seduced two students at her home and may have had sex with “many” more, police said.
Jamila Love Williams, 35, has allegedly confessed to conducting sexual relationships with a 16-year-old and 15-year-old attending her algebra class at University Preparatory Academy in Grand Rapids.
The older teen reportedly had sex with the mother-of-four teacher at several locations, including her home, in her car and in a park.
The younger alleged victim told cops he had sex with her in an alley behind his house and in her vehicle.
Williams turned herself into Kent County Jail on Thursday afternoon. No bond was set.
She faces four counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct and could be jailed for 15 years if convicted.
Grand Rapids cops launched an investigation after parents and students reported about the teacher’s suspicious behavior.

  By Olumide T. Agunbiade                                                                                                                      Mrs. Modupe Onitiri-Abiola, one of the wives of the late Chief MKO Abiola, on Friday declared her intention to contest the 2015 governorship election in Lagos State.
 Onitiri-Abiola, wife of the acclaimed winner of the annulled June 12, 1993 presidential elections, however, did not mention the party's platform on which she would contest.
 She told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN)

in Lagos that her motive for seeking the votes of the electorate was to assist in poverty eradication.
 Onitiri-Abiola said that she worked with her late husband in the struggle for the actualisation of the June 12 elections annulled by the military regime of former president, Ibrahim Babangida, in 1993.
 According to her, the country needs to start practicing true democracy at all levels of government to meet the yearnings and aspirations of Nigerians.
 The aspirant said if she becomes the state governor, poverty eradication would be the focal point of her administration.
