*TODAY IN HISTORY*

* On this day in 1967, Nigeria’s military ruler, General Yakubu Gowon, created 12 states through the restructuring of the four pre-existing regions. Before that date, the country was divided into Northern, Western, Eastern and Mid-Western regions for administration

* On this day in 1937, the Golden Gate Bridge was opened. The suspension bridge connecting San Francisco peninsula with Marin County is one of the most recognized works of United States architecture.
