Someone was comparing hawkings to carson?
Absolute nonsense.
Seperating co-joined twins like carson did does not require genius, especially when it is not a "prototypical" surgical procedure.
All you need is a little bit of talent and lots of practise.
Hawkings is a genius.
His works are 3-dimensional physics which requires a lot of imagination and highly uncommon brainpower.
I can only compare him a bit to leonardo davinci, who was probably the greatest mind in modern history.
don't mind nigerians! They sit on their behind and read "gifted hands" and assume Carson us the brainiest human since Albert Einstein..rubbish! Let them watch international news more and see how Carson is embarrassing himself while running for president.

socialmediaman:
The lawmakers were at the top of the fight because the presidency kept mute on the issue as usual. While I agree with the decision of the Nigerian government to recall its ambassador, I feel the lack of real action on the part of South Africa is a reflection of their level of disrespect for Nigeria and its outgoing executive leadership at the moment. See guts, they even made it indirectly clear they have no business with the outgoing president. President Jonathan really brought disdain to this country, South Africa will not insult us like this on a very good day..
you are an idiotic partisan hack to side with a foreign government over your president.

I am not confidence to talk or even express myself properly in the company where I was newly employed. I find it difficult to speak due to the fact that I don't want to make mistake and this makes me feel lonely and inferior among my colleagues.

Please, I will want you to assist me with tips to overcome this situation.

How To Master The Fine Art Of Small Talk

Small talk gets a bad reputation. To avoid this allegedly meaningless drivel, people skip networking events. Or, almost as bad, they attend, but talk to the three people they already know.

This is shortsighted, says Debra Fine, author of The Fine Art of Small Talk. "Small talk is the appetizer for any relationship," she says, and people like to do business with those with whom they’ve established common ground. "A good networker is looking to foster relationships and build a community never knowing how that contact can help now or in the future. My motto is ‘every conversation is an opportunity for success.’" Here’s how to do small talk better:

1. Lower Your Expectations.

While you can hope for the best, don’t expect too much from any given chat. If you come to cocktail hour hoping for nothing more than a good restaurant or book recommendation, you can relax and enjoy yourself, and be pleasantly surprised by anything else that happens. Relaxed people are, incidentally, more enjoyable for others to be around too.

2. Have something to talk about.

"I never approach a meeting, an industry function, or a networking event without at least three things to talk about," says Fine. "When is the worst time to come up with something to talk about? When you have nothing to talk about!" In particular, she practices a solid answer to "How are you?" or "How are things?" so she doesn’t respond with an "unhelpful one word answer" that forces a conversation partner to do much of the work.

3. Lead with a declaration.

While questions are generally good, leading with one carries risk. You might ask about the one topic the person doesn’t want to cover: "How’s work?" results in "They just announced huge layoffs" or, more likely, an evasive answer and awkward silence. Some people might view asking a direct question at the start of a conversation as rude.

Instead, volunteer something positive about a topic that’s potentially common ground, so the person can choose to reciprocate. "Our host said she just got back from California" lets the person talk about the host, vacations, business she’s done in California, a time she visited California, etc.

4. Then go for questions.

Most people like to talk about themselves, so asking questions is a good way to follow up once you’ve established a safe topic. Avoid close-ended questions ("Did you go on Space Mountain?" could be answered "No"wink and instead ask about favorite memories. That lets people tell their best stories.

If you’re in a conversation with someone who’s particularly hard to engage, try the old interview trick of giving people two options: "Did you rent a car in Amsterdam or take the train?" If one option is correct, people will elaborate on it ("We rented a car, but we had to special order a minivan. Hertz didn’t just have one at the airport..."wink or if neither is, people are quick to correct a faulty impression ("Actually, we traveled the whole country by bicycle"wink. The correction then offers multiple follow-on possibilities.

5. Prepare for a lull.

You can extricate yourself ("I need to go say hello to my old client"wink or you can introduce your conversation partner to someone ("Would you like to meet her?"wink but there may be nowhere else to go. So good conversationalists also know how to shift. If she’s been talking about work, Fine likes to ask "What keeps you busy outside of work?"

If you’ve established general biographical info, she recommends letting the person show you her best self with "What has the highlight of your year been so far?" Who knows, it might be a highlight you’re interested too, and the person goes from small talk partner to honest-to-goodness friend.

Well let see how it unfold.
APC wants their hands on the two cash cows of nigeria..rivers and akwa ibom state but they know they can never win it so they create chaos in those states election to cast aspersions on it to get foolish statements like this cancellation out, but it will never work and they'll learn that in a hard way.

When next you wanna comment, make sure to employ the services of your brain. If you don't have one, you can as well borrow.

It says "international observers" and not APC. That is the crux of the matter here.
save me the idiotic talk you slowpoke!! Were there no shooting and voter intimidation in lagos? The rivers state that you speak of, wike was barricaded in his house by the military and never left, the same ameachi that went around the state harrasing voters and inec staff but still lost has in conjuction with his master, tinubu orchestrated this sharm call for cancellation by fictitious foreign observers. The APC is evil! They know they can't win rivers na d akwa ibom so they create chaos to cast aspersions on the election results when they finally loose. But they will fail, this election will stand, this is not like the presidential election where ameachi paid stuupid women 50,000 each to protest, any rubbish APC stunt will be met with resistance by the "real" rivers people.
