Walking This Way

ditor’s note

Walk This Way is a song by American hardrock group, Aerosmith. It was written bySteven Tyler and Joe Perry. It was originallyreleased as the second single from their 1975album Toys in the Attic.In addition to being one of the songs thathelped break Aerosmith into the mainstreamin the 1970s, it also helped resurrect theircareer and revolutionised the new hybridsub-musical genre of rock and rap. It becamean international hit and won both groups aSoul Train Music Award for Best Rap singlein 1987. The song was also covered by theUK girl groups Sugababes and Girls Aloud as

the ofcial Comic Relief single in 2007. It’s a

wonderful song I love.And so, in the spirit of this song, we warmlywelcome you to a bumper edition of

NaijaTimes. It’s a brand new month for us

here. We have been off the news stand for awhile and we are glad to be back again.In this maiden return edition, there arestories which cut across different areas
