He explained that import subsidy spends public money supporting petrol refined abroad and brought into Nigeria, while production subsidy supports crude refined locally so that Nigerian refineries can produce fuel more cheaply and Nigerians can pay less. Atiku's comments outline a policy shift toward supporting domestic refining.
