North Korea's Kim Jong Un reportedly seen in public for first time in 3 weeks
Photos emerged Friday in a North Korean state-owned newspaper showing Kim cutting a red ribbon at the opening of a fertilizer plant in Suncheon In. He appeared to be accompanied by his sister.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency also reported that Kim appeared at the grand opening. NBC News has not verified Kim's attendance at the ribbon cutting.
Earlier, Yonhap reported that a North Korean defector was "99% certain" that Kim died last weekend and an announcement could be forthcoming over the next several days.
Last week the South Korean government cast doubt on rumors that Kim was gravely ill following heart surgery. Speculation about his health intensified after he did not attend his late grandfather's birthday celebrations on April 15, the most important date in North Korea's calendar, known as "Day of the Sun."
Rumors continued to swirl after the South Korean website Daily NK cited one unnamed source as saying Kim, who is believed to be 36, had undergone heart surgery and was recuperating in a villa outside the capital Pyongyang.
Several U.S. officials previously told NBC News that U.S. intelligence reporting indicated Kim had cardiovascular surgery and remained out of the public eye for days.

Pregnant Woman Fighting For Her Life After She Was R*ped By A Notorious Bike Rider
Mrs Sade Jawo had hired Omogunwa at Ajagba to take her to a farm settlement where she wanted to go and buy palm oil.
The 30-year-old businesswoman, while narrating her ordeal, revealed that while on the way to the farm settlement where she usually purchased her palm oil, the Okada rider was able to convince her that he knew another farm settlement where she could get the palm oil at a cheaper price.
She decided to give it a try not knowing that Omogunwa had a different mission for offering the economic advice.
Having rode further into the bush, the motorcyclist suddenly stopped and dragged the pregnant passenger to the bush and r*ped her severally till she started bleeding and in the process lost her pregnancy.
She was almost strangulated by the 32-year-old randy Okada rider when she resisted him, but had to give in when she observed that he was ready to kill her and r*pe her dead body.
The victim passed out while the brutish r*pist was pounding her ceaselessly and was in the bush for close to 48 hours.
She was later rescued by a search party organisrd by her family having waited for her for so long.
She was awaken by a downpour and that revived her as she was able to crawl to the roadside and seek for help.
Mrs Jawo revealed that when she passed out, the r*pist took her mobile phone and emptied her purse in which she kept N150,000 she wanted to use to buy palm oil.
Traditional ruler of Ajagba, the Ahaba of Ajagba, Oba Adesayo Ajibade, described the crime committed by the motorcyclist as a taboo in the land.
He revealed that it’s a sacrilege to have s*x with women and ladies on bare ground in Ikale land.
The monarch disclosed that the consequence of such act on the land are poor yields and famine unless the offenders make sacrifices to propitiate the gods of the land.
He also warned that the r*ped pregnant woman might not survive any subsequent sickness without making the appropriate rituals.
However, the Ondo State Police Command says its detectives are currently on the trail of the Okada rider who disappeared into the thin air after committing the crime.

Makinde slashes salaries of political appointees by 50 percent
Makinde, who disclosed this on Friday during the Workers’ Day celebration held at the Labour House in Ibadan, said this was to ensure the economic safety of other workers in the state.
The governor also said that he had already secured the cooperation of the legislators to take a 30 per cent cut off their monthly allocations.
He commended the workers for their understanding in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
The governor said that it was not only the health workers leading the charge on COVID-19, but volunteers from other sectors working to curtail the virus in the state.
“The next couple of months are going to be difficult but we are working hard to mitigate the shocks to our economy.
“We must on this day appreciate the efforts of those who have taken pay cuts so that others may be catered for and I am happy that under this administration, the wellbeing of the common man takes precedence.
“We will continue to put in the work needed to ensure that you are never paid with “bear-with-us” at the end of any month.
“We salute the workers who have sacrificed their earnings at this time; those whose businesses have been affected by the partial lockdown in Oyo State,”Makinde said.
He said COVID-19 had struck and it was now the responsibility of all stakeholders to build something out of this pandemic that would make generations to come out proud.
“After COVID-19, we will be left with an economy which must be grown and sustained. I will make the tough decisions so that our economy can thrive.
“We want to get our economy back on track and this is why we have started opening up the system while keeping an eye on the reports from the Oyo State COVID-19 Emergency Operations Centre.
“We have partially opened up the State Secretariat. We are picking up infrastructural projects that we have had to hold off.
“Already, some projects were approved last week. We are injecting funds to kick-start our economic recovery,”Makinde said.
Makinde promised that the state government would keep paying the new minimum wage on the 25th of every month.

Children Of Dead COVID-19 Patient & Pastor Praying For Him In Rivers All Test Positive
The State has recorded 13 cases with two deaths.
Updating the State on efforts to contain the pandemic on Friday, Wike declared wearing of face-masks in public places have become mandatory across Rivers.
He blamed security operatives deployed to enforce borders’ closure for sabotaging the efforts, accusing them of receiving gratifications to allow people into the state.
He vowed the borders would enforce be tightened with the inauguration of a Task Force of on Border Closure comprising of Rivers indigenes.
He said: “The wearing of face mask in all public places is now compulsory throughout the state.”
“The State Security Council will meet in the next 24 hours to consider and approve necessary mitigating measures for commuters, including the deployment of government buses to shuttle designated public places.”
The Governor also read the riot acts to traditional rulers of recalcitrant suburbs, including traders who have consistently defied the closedown of market places and other areas.
He threatened he would not hesitate to totally lock down those areas. Areas facing the axe include Rumuokoro, Rumukurushi and Elimgbu, and the Oil Mill Market, which the Governor vowed could remain under lock and keys for the remainder of his tenure unless residents comply with the lockdown order.
Speaking on the transmission of the virus in Rivers State, Wike reinforced that it was fallout of sabotage by security agencies and their operatives.
“The logical conclusion therefore, is that the pattern of transmission of COVID-19 in the state is evidentially predicated on outside importation just as the rate of infection and progression is also relatively low and arithmetical, when considered from the date of the index case.
“Generally, we believe that unless there is a sudden and vertical slide into community transmission, we expect our COVID-19 infection and prevalent rate to continue along this low trajectory, which gives us the assurance that our hard work is paying off and Rivers State is certainly not in any dangerous position when compared to most other States, and we will never be by God’s special grace.
“This is not to say that we are at the peak of this crisis and that everything about the containment and transmission of COVID-19 is under control. No; we are not, because of the challenges occasioned primarily by the negative elements that continue to undermine and sabotage our efforts to protect our people from this disease.
“For instance, the 7th infected case was an offshore oil and gas worker who went and passed a night in a Lagos hotel before returning to Port Harcourt on the 9th of April 2020 with the aid of the security personnel manning our borders. When his symptoms started, he was admitted to a private hospital, (names withheld) on the 20th and discharged on the 21st of April 2020.
“Had the security agencies not compromised their responsibility at the borders, this man would have been prevented from coming into Port Harcourt with this virus and threaten the lives of other people for over two weeks before he was evacuated to the treatment center.”
Coronavirus survivors could need physiotherapy to learn to walk again, doctor warns
Now, one doctor has warned of a long-term effect of the virus, that can leave some patients needing physiotherapy.
Dr James Gill, a GP who has treated several coronavirus patients, explained that in the most severe cases, patients may need to re-learn how to walk.
Speaking to Sun Online, he said: “After 10 days needing help with breathing, possibly on a ventilator and sedated, we can’t just say, ‘you’ve won the battle, back to the world you go.
"Patients are going to need step-down care, with nutritionists getting them to eat well and physios helping them to mobilise again.”
Dr Gill compares recovering from coronavirus to recuperating after running a half marathon.
He explained: “Most people who complete a half marathon wouldn't want to do another one the following day, because of how much it hurts.
"But getting through the worst cases of the Covid-19 virus, and the effect it has on your body, is like doing a half marathon every day during your time in ICU. It is a colossal assault on the body.
"You are physically put through the wringer so the recovery process, depending on your age and fitness level, is going to be a slow process.
"Patients will suffer from fatigue, in the same way that somebody runs over the marathon line, then collapses and their legs turn to jelly, and they may need help learning how to walk again.”
Thankfully, most people who get coronavirus will only develop mild symptoms, including a cough and fever.
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), people with mild symptoms should make a good and speedy recovery.
The fever should settle in less than a week, although the cough may linger for longer.
A WHO analysis found that it takes two weeks on average to recover.

Whatsapp Video Call Upgraded To 8 Persons For Android and iPhone
Users of Android and iPhone Smartphone can now add twice the previous number of people allowed in a video call on WhatsApp.
Facebook, the parent company of WhatsApp disclosed the latest quirk in a Video Call News last week. According to the report, the Video Call upgrade is now accessible for iOS and Andriod device users running the newest model of the application.
The new quirk on WhatsApp, which at the moment is the most actively used messaging application with over 2 billion users around the globe, provides a more suitable substitute for other Conference call platforms like Zoom, Houseparty, FaceTime, as well as Skype.
Nevertheless, though WhatsApp still dawdles with some of the big players in the game like Google Duo which allows 12 calls at a time; Google Meet with as much as 100 people for private users and 250 for business and educational purposes; Apple's FaceTime allowing 32 callers and Zoom permitting 500 callers on priced premium, the messaging app - WhatsApp is now in the category with Houseparty allowing 8 callers as well.
Also, the video call upgrade on WhatsApp is not exempted from the end-to-end encryption security that the app adopts to prevent externals including WhatsApp itself from viewing or listening to personal conversations. With the issues of cyber hacking, this upgrade is just right on time.
While the world is on lockdown from the Coronavirus pandemic, video call applications and platforms have become a basic necessity for catch-ups with family and friends as well as for business and educational communications.
