The trophy  triggered an unprecedented applause from the crowd which gave NAMA a standing ovation for a job well done.
Earlier in his opening remarks, the Director General of the outfit,  Dr. Amadi Chima stated that the parameter used in selecting the outstanding awardees was based on transparency in conducting government business, accountability, policy and programme implementation, physical discipline and prompt response to correspondence. 
He revealed that over 400 institutions were assessed this year with intense voting from various platforms which lasted about four months and brought out the best of the best as was evident in the result of the vote by Nigerians, stressing that corruption could be curtailed if people are honored for honesty hard work, due diligence, accountability and service delivery.
