DALORI, Nigeria (AP) — A survivor hidden in a tree says he watched Boko Haram extremists firebomb huts and heard the screams of children burning to death, among 86 people officials say died in the latest attack by Nigeria's homegrown Islamic extremists.
Scores of charred corpses and bodies with bullet wounds littered the streets from Saturday night's attack on Dalori village and two nearby camps housing 25,000 refugees, according to survivors and soldiers at the scene just 5 kilometers (3 miles) from Maiduguri, the birthplace of Boko Haram and the biggest city in Nigeria's northeast.
The shooting, burning and explosions from three suicide bombers continued for nearly four hours in the unprotected area, survivor Alamin Bakura said, weeping on a telephone call to The Associated Press. He said several of his family members were killed or wounded.
The violence continued as three female suicide bombers blew up among people who managed to flee to neighboring Gamori village, killing many people, according to a soldier at the scene who insisted on anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to journalists.
Troops arrived at Dalori around 8:40 p.m. Saturday but were unable to overcome the attackers, who were better armed, said soldiers who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the press. The Boko Haram fighters only retreated after reinforcements arrived with heavier weapons, they said.
Journalists visited the carnage Sunday and spoke to survivors who complained it had taken too long for help to arrive from nearby Maiduguri, the military headquarters of the fight to curb Boko Haram. They said they fear another attack.
Eighty-six bodies were collected by Sunday afternoon, according to Mohammed Kanar, area coordinator of the National Emergency Management Agency. Another 62 people are being treated for burns, said Abba Musa of the State Specialist Hospital in Maiduguri.
Boko Haram has been attacking soft targets, increasingly with suicide bombers, since the military last year drove them out of towns and villages in northeastern Nigeria.
The 6-year Islamic uprising has killed about 20,000 people and driven 2.5 million from their homes.
Comedienne Luenell Campbell has weighed in on the Kanye West vs. Amber Rose and Wiz Khalifa feud in a new interview with DJ Vlad.
In Campbell's opinion Rose zipped up a body bag with her comment about fingering West's butt hole.
"Awww @kanyewest are you mad I'm not around to play in your asshole anymore? #FingersInTheBootyAssBitch," Rose wrote on her Twitter account, in response to West dragging her son, Sebastian, into his argument with Wiz.
"I think that she did shut that whole shit down with that statement 'cause nobody wants to embellish on that comment," Campbell said. "And I think she was pretty bold to even admit that she had been fingering some guy in the ass ... namely Kanye. Nobody had nothing to say after that."
Michael Jackson was and still is a big inspiration for Chris Brown. The sing idolized the late, great King of Pop and is not at all happy that a white actor has been cast to play him in an upcoming TV film.
As we previously reported, Joseph Fiennes has been cast as Jackson in a new British TV comedy titled "Elizabeth, Michael and Marlon." The film chronicles a road trip that Marlon Brando, Elizabeth Taylor and MJ are rumored to have made in an attempt to leave New York after the September 11 attacks.
Joseph Fiennes will play Michael Jackson in an upcoming comedy
"I'm a white, middle-class guy from London," Fiennes told Entertainment Tonight. "I'm as shocked as you may be. But he definitely had a pigmentation issue, and that's something I do believe. So, he was probably closer to my color than his original color."
On Friday, January 29, Brown vented about the casting via Twitter.
"Y'all know y'all dead wrong to have dude play MJ," he wrote. "If that's the case LET ME BE SUPERMAN. Da fuck they do that at? Is that blackface? I DONT SUPPORT THAT CORNY ASS SHIT!"
Y'all know y'all dead wrong to have dude play MJ. If that's the case LET ME BE SUPERMAN. Da fuck they do that at? Is that blackface?

Kevin Gates just released his debut album titled "Islah."
He sat down with DJ Smallz to explain that the album is named after his daughter, doesn't have features because he hates to inconvenience people and breaks down the artwork and some of the songs on the project.
"The reason I chose the name Islah was because Islah being my baby, my first daughter and this being my first album," he said. "I treat the music as if it were my child. The name Islah in Spanish means island. But I chose the Aramaic meaning, which means that it's a spiritual awakening. It means to improve, it means to make better. And my daughter did all of those things for me."
