We speak to the boss of a mobile payments company in the capital, Lagos, and also a textile businessman in the northern city of Kano about their election hopes. The US state of Indiana is threatened with a trade boycott over a new law that many see as a way to allow businesses to discriminate against gay people.

And in our round-up of the week's biggest stories we discuss the Germanwings crash, the merger between US food giants Heinz and Kraft, and Facebook's move into the news business.
