Students had to wash the room and rearrange it very neaty to allow a conduct environment for the meeting to take place. It happened that one of the student from the assigned group brought up disturbances, when others were putting tables, seats and decorations on their respective places, he would turn around everything and put some bad trace's on them. These made other students hungry on him that they tend to report the matter to the office. One of the student resolved and Said,' I think we should first report it to our chairman, how is it? Well said, that's the best way, they concluded. They called him and presented their complaint to him. "Oh! Good students are you done? Thank you." He said. They answered,"No, not really. One of our colleagues is really disturbing. Every time we get the dinning clean and organized, he again disorganized and make the decoration sheet thirty.
