A subsidy is a benefit given to an individual, business or institution, usually by the government. ... The subsidy is typically given to remove some type of burden, and it is often considered to be in the overall interest of the public, given to promote a social good or an economic policy.

But here in Nigeria, anytime the government removes subsidy it actually causes hardship to the citizens especially in the area of fuel which will majorly affect all sectors of the economy and increases in goods.

Please is their something am getting wrong with the term or Nigerian Subsidy is quite different from the normal subsidy we know.
