The Business Day Newspaper had nominated four best performing Governors from all the 36 States Governors and they were put forward for the public to criticize and make their final decision on whom the cap fits.

It was gathered that what gave Governor Umahi' an edge over his contemporaries was his projects, policies and programs which cut across every sector of the state economy.

The projects were said to have been scattered all over the state from urban and rural infrastructural development to healthcare, education, tourism, agriculture. Ebonyi State now wears a new look.

It could be recalled that Governor Umahi had also won the best performing governor of the year 2018 by Leadership Newspaper, Governor of the year 2018 on Infrastructure by Authority Newspaper, Governor of the year on Agriculture by New Telegraph Newspaper etc.
