Taboola Wake Up Screen

ZTE Model: Tempo N9137

Can anyone tell me how to really get rid of this screen that always shows up on a wake. It's like for news with a picture, a couple of "read" links, "more news, and "press and hold to unlock". It has a little window that says "Sponsored links by Taboola". I've searched and tried suggestions but it won't go away. I've even done a factory reset several times.
Appreciate any help to get rid of this annoyance.

Looks like this is built in by ZTE so maybe not possible to stop it - Anyone know?
