Nigerian Arrested For Stalking Ryan Seacrest by yeancah007(f): 10:27am On Oct 31, 2009
What could be Chidi's problem?

[center][size=18pt]'Idol' host Ryan Seacrest gets restraining order[/size] [/center]

LOS ANGELES – A judge granted "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest a temporary restraining order against a man arrested on suspicion of stalking the radio and television host outside his workplace on Friday, court records show.

Seacrest's attorneys obtained the stay-away order hours after they say Chidi Benjamin Uzomah Jr. was detained at the E! Entertainment Television headquarters in Los Angeles.

The filing claims Uzomah was carrying a knife and was trying to see the popular television and radio host.

Uzomah, 25, is on probation for another incident involving Seacrest. Court records show he pleaded guilty in Orange County, Calif., last month to three misdemeanors: carrying a switchblade knife, assault and battery. Uzomah was charged after he attacked one of Seacrest's bodyguards outside an event.

"His aggressive and violent efforts to come into physical contact with me are extremely frightening to me," Seacrest wrote in a declaration filed Friday. "They have jeopardized not only my personal safety, but also the safety and well-being of those around me."

Police said Ozomah was arrested and booked on suspicion of stalking. Jail records showed he remained in police custody Friday evening, held on $150,000 bail.

The filing states Uzomah tried to meet Seacrest at radio station KIIS-FM earlier this month, but Seacrest records his show at the E! Entertainment Television headquarters. Besides working as the affable host of "American Idol" Seacrest has numerous other gigs, including producing E! series such as "Keeping Up With the Kardashians."

A court hearing on whether to grant a three-year stay-away order against Uzomah will be held on Nov. 17.

Alleged Seacrest Stalker Sought Actor 'Training'
Posted Nov 2nd 2009 9:00AM by TMZ Staff
Before he had cuffs on his wrists, the man accused of stalking Ryan Seacrest had stars in his eyes -- as in, the dude was training to be an actor , and TMZ obtained footage from his acting class.



Just days before Chidi Uzomah was arrested for attacking Seacrest's security guard outside a hospital in Orange County, dude went to the Secrets of Acting studio and met with acting coach Charles Tentindo. Chidi told Tentindo he wanted "training" and came into the studio just once and ran through a scene a couple of times -- oddly enough, it was some kind of interrogation scene where Chidi was the witness. (BTW -- he's terrible)

Tentindo tells TMZ he thought Uzomah "seemed very sad and depressed" and had a sort of "dark cloud" over him.

Uzomah took the class on September 8. He was arrested the first time on September 17 at a charity event in Orange County. Chidi was arrested again just this past Friday inside the building where Seacrest does his daily radio and TV show. Uzomah is being held on a charge of felony stalking.

SHIOR!!!
We all know the truth hurts. @"sjeezy8" believe it or not, nothing positive comes out of Nigeria, so I care less if you think I'm not Nigeiran, besides your opinion can't make a hair on my skin stand. And to my dear amaka, you sought to know where I got my power to speak up from?. Sorry about the backwardness in Nigeria, which has pushed everybody to brink. That is why the Nigerian constitution has no defined rights that protects its citizens, and that is also why you fear to speak!!. when Fela was alive, everybody liked him because he had the balls to speak, so do I have the same balls as fela. so if u hate my guts, then go jump of the moluwe bus. Nigeria is being ruled as a democratic country right? useless democracy. If anybody feels like attacking me for saying the truth about whats happening in my country let the person go ahead and do so. as for the self denial thing u got going for ya, I don't know where you got that from, or maybe you are the one living in self denial. besides self denial doesn't even come into the context at all, not even one bit. So u should go and put ur dirty ass in a dumb Bleep sit and shut the heck up like u always have.
UNTIL WE LEARN TO SAY NO TO OUR CORRUPT LEADERS!, UNTIL WE LEARN TO SPEAK UP!, UNTIL WE LEARN TO LIVE AS ONE. NIGERIAN WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN DARKNESS FOR AS LONG AS ALL THESE FACTORS MENTIONED IS STILL IN EXISTENCE.

@ dedoo24k if you say nothing positive comes out of Nigeria, don't 4get you're included in all the negative things, bsyds don't u know the guy who designed the most expensive suit in the world is Nigerian? What about acclaimed writers Wole Soyinka, Chinua Achebe, Chimamanda Adichie? Na U.S dem comot from? *hisssssssssssssss*Oloshi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Nigerian Arrested For Stalking Ryan Seacrest by dedoo24k(m): 7:46am On Feb 25, 2010
lol, you are better off in your lala little land ms safarigirl. you will be welcomed to comment futher whenever you find ur presence amongst reality. Nevertheless, you are right about our great scholars. we have great men and women ( including you and me) who have envisioned, emancipated, and achieved greatness. that being a part as a whole has nothing to do with the countries numerous defaulted dimensions of well being. (politically speaking) our country is in shambles. anyways all I'm saying is do not judge a book by its covers. my friend chidi is not a stalker. Ryan aggravated him and chidi took matters into his hands. i dint know why u guys are making a big deal about shit that ain't shit,
Re: Nigerian Arrested For Stalking Ryan Seacrest by SisiKill1: 10:12pm On Feb 25, 2010
The fact that it is Ryan Whatshisface he was stalking is grounds enough for an insanity plea.
Re: Nigerian Arrested For Stalking Ryan Seacrest by oge4real(f): 1:07pm On Feb 28, 2010
Ryan of all people? What was the Chidi of a guy thinking?
