Bashir Yusuf, former Political Adviser to former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has against stepped up in defense of his religion, complaining that there is a discrimination against Muslims by officials officiating at the ongoing African Cup of Nations in South Africa.

Complaining on his twitter profile, Bashir said a player who wore an 'I Love Jesus' T-Shirt was not penalized while a Ghanian player who wore an 'I Love Allah' T-Shirt was penalized with a Yellow Card.
