Usher's ex-wife Tameka LOSES custody of their children

Usher's ex-wife Tameka Raymond suffered fresh heartache today - after losing the custody battle over their two sons.

The 33-year-old singer was awarded primary care of four-year-old Usher Raymond V and Naviyd, three, after a ruling by Georgia judge, TMZ reports.

It comes just weeks after Tameka's 11-year-old son Kile - from a previous relationship - tragically died following a freak jet ski accident last month.

 Court battle: Usher was today awarded primary custody of his two sons from his marriage to Tameka Raymond.

The former couple were both giving evidence last week, with Tameka trying to prevent the singer from taking sole custody of their two young sons, while closing arguments were also delivered. It was a messy battle which saw Tameka accuse Usher of being an absent father - while he branded her a bad mother who was unable to bond with their children. Their two sons will no spend most of their time with their father - while it is unclear how much access Tameka will get to her boys.

Main parent: Usher Raymond V and Naviyd, three, will now spend most of their time with their father . Usher and Tameka previously had a co-parenting agreement in place.

According to Fox Atlanta, an attorney representing the vocalist said at an earlier hearing: 'We believe the evidence is that Ms Raymond is incapable of being a proper parent to these children. The ruling comes after Tameka's son Kile, 11, from a previous relationship, tragically died last month. 'That she does not have the emotional stability or capacity to bond with them, and therefore she is handicapped.'

However the 41-year-old stylist's attorney Lisa West told the court the pop star is on the road all the time, and cannot rely on the 'village' of his mother, grandmother and aunt, who all attended, to keep the children.

She added that he does not have a good relationship with his mother, and said Tameka is determined to fight for custody. The two divorced in 2009 and both sides admitted the current co-parenting arrangement is not working.

They have been attending Fulton County for various hearings over the past several months, with both giving testimony.

Usher, whose surname is Raymond, told the court on Monday last week that he tries to focus on his children when they are with him, but sometimes he has to juggle other commitments. According to the The Atlanta Journal-Constitution he said: 'I try to do all of my work when I don't have the children, but there may be times when there's an obligation of something that comes up.'

Italian arrested over murder of Nigerian prostitute

 

An Italian man has been arrested over the murder of Anthonia Egbuna, a Nigerian prostitute, after police searching her apartment found a short story he wrote with close similarities to the killing.

The Carabinieri (Italian Military Police) disclosed that Anthonia was stabbed and her body was dumped in the river Po. It took some months for the police to identify the corpse and thereafter, her apartment was visited. While going through her possesions, a nine-page story, titled 'The Rose and the Lion', was found among her belongings.

The murder case is reminiscent of the 1992 Hollywood thriller movie Basic Instinct, and aspiring author, Daniele Piampaschet, was arrested last week because of similarities between his short story and the real murder, the police said.

After finding 34-year-old Piampaschet's short story, police say they discovered he had been in a relationship with Anthonia, who was then 19 years old, between February and August of 2011.

They alleged in a statement that he murdered her in November because their relationship was going badly and she refused to give up prostitution, which appeared to be the connection between the story.

An excerpt of the story reads thus: "He loved her and he loved her more every day, but she did not want to leave the streets. All his efforts to convince her to change her life had failed. And for this reason she had become his torturer."

In the short story, the murderer strangles the Nigerian prostitute and then commits suicide. "He wrote the story and gave it to her as a gift -- to make himself look good," says Piampaschet's lawyer, Stefano Tizzani.

Tizzani said Piampaschet had a "profound passion" for Africa and Nigeria, and saw Anthonia as an inspiration for his writing. "My client has declared his innocence and we are working to demonstrate it," Tizzani said.

While denying the murder, Piampaschet told investigators after his arrest that his relationship with Anthonia changed after he started dating another Nigerian woman last August, though he remained in contact with her.

His lawyer said his client stopped seeing Egbuna after he was threatened by people who control the Nigerian prostitution business in Turin. "He stopped calling her after he was threatened and intimidated and told not to see her anymore," said Tizzani.

TONTO DIKEH REVEALS HOW TB JOSHUA’S PRAYERS ENDED HER 14 YEAR SMOKING ADDICTION

Popular Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has sensationally revealed that the sudden end to her smoking addiction came through the prayers of Pastor T.B. Joshua via his Christian station Emmanuel TV.

Dikeh, who rose to fame after becoming the runner up in the Nigerian reality show, 'The Next Movie Star' in 2006, had garnered a controversial reputation in Nollywood for being a heavy smoker.

According to Dikeh, she started chain-smoking at the age of 13 and there seemed no signs of the habit waning. When questioned about her smoking in an interview with Nigeria's Nation Newspaper early last year, the Rivers State born star said, "If I want to smoke, I handle a stick of cigarette and I smoke it hard. It is my life I can decide to smoke myself to hell. It's nobody's business."

The habit recently led to a serious clash between her and Ghanaian actor Van Vicker when he bitterly complained at her smoking on set, culminating in a heavy exchange of words. When probed in September 2011 about the health implications of her habit, the care-free actress retorted, "My smoking habit doesn't affect your life in anyway. If I die tomorrow, you're not going to bury me. My father has the money to bury me. So, why are they talking about it?"

However, there was a sudden twist in the tale in May 2012 when, seemingly out of the blue, Tonto tweeted to her over 80,000 followers on Twitter, 'I've good news for those who wish me well. Its silly good news but ya'll going to love this. I quit smoking!' Although the announcement was met with almost unanimous approval from her fans, speculation was rife as to what caused her sudden decision, many doubting whether it would actually last. But in an online article published this week, the sultry actress shed light on the spiritual element to her quitting in an interview with Nigerian entertainment magazine, 'E24-7'.

"I didn't quit smoking by myself," she explained to Biodun Kupoluyi. "I was watching a program on TV with Prophet T.B. Joshua and he was laying hands on people and praying for them. I love to watch his programs on Emmanuel TV. When he was praying, he said, 'Lay your hands on the TV' and I just laid my hands that day. I actually needed something else from God, not to quit smoking because I loved smoking! However, after praying I sat back and I think I slept off."

After a short nap, Tonto awoke and attempted to smoke as usual. However, according to her, something inexplicably supernatural had happened. "When I woke up, I took a stick of cigarette and I felt crazy. I couldn't even imagine that I took it up to smoke in the first place. It felt like poison!" An addiction of 14 years was ended through a simple prayer on television. Three months down the line, Dikeh has remained clean from smoking.

Judging by online reaction to Tonto's revelation, it appears her experience is not an isolated one. Many viewers of Joshua's Emmanuel TV testified to similar experiences, including Lovemore Chibvongodze from United Kingdom who told the official T.B. Joshua Ministries Facebook Page, followed by close to 300,000 people, how his 34 year addiction to smoking and drinking alcohol ended through prayers on Emmanuel TV.

Joshua, who was recently adjudged by Paris-based magazine, 'The Africa Report' to be among the 50 most influential Africans, is growing increasingly popular across Africa largely due to the increase in awareness of and intrigue in Emmanuel TV.

Speaking on T.B. Joshua's positive influence in her life, Tonto said, "I watch him every day, I write to him every time I can, I tweet on him. I think that he is a person that influences my life positively in a lot of ways just through the TV alone... I am following him because I think he is following Jesus. I just love him because he is a man of God and he has specially affected my life and my friends too."
