Diamond is the best thermal conductor around room temperature. Diamond has a thermal conductivity of more than 2,000 watts per meter per Kelvin, which is five times higher than the best metals such as copper.

Why conductivity of diamond is highest being a nonmetal?

It would help if you specify whether you are talking about thermal conductivity, or electrical conductivity. Diamond certainly doesn't has the highest electrical conductivity. Its thermal conductivity is one of the highest known, and - if a synthetic diamond is made from pure (99.9%) C-12, it is indeed the highest. The Wikipedia article attributes this to a strong covalent bonding.
