(Monday morning, the principal is seen addressing the students on the assembly ground)
(After they prayed, sang the national anthem and said the pledge, the principal had some few words of wisdom)
Principal: I have always thought that in this school we had very good students but I didn't know that there were some students in the background and behind those beautiful faces and warm smiles there were some evil hearts who had hatred for some intelligent students to the extent of trying to frame them. You will all be wondering what is I, this old man trying to say. But here it is, two weeks ago, something happened. Three girls in JSS 3 A framed another student in their class by putting the books they claimed to be missing her bag. So that it would be found in her bag and since she would have denied it so many times, they would call her a thief. But Almighty God intervened and her name has been cleared. Those girls are by name, Malory Stevens, Nancy John and Ellie Macsamuel. They are now suspended for three months and since their JSCE is in a month, they would not write and they will obviously repeat JSS 3. I hope they have learnt their lessons, my wife would always tell my children when they were smaller that they should learn from people's mistakes and should never experience it. My aim of telling you this, is not to put those girls down but for you to remember this anytime you think of doing an act like that. We don't want to raise criminals in this school, be warned. Thank you very much, you can match to your classes.
(Lights out)
