Circulating inferior ropes dangerous, firm warns

A campaign for the use of mooring ropes that can withstand any weather condition has begun by a marine and investment services firm.

According to the company, the importance of ropes to maritime and shipping agencies cannot be overemphasised in an ideal business environment.

Apoi Investment Nigeria Limited, which deals in the procurement of trading and general supply of mooring ropes, warned operators and stakeholders of the danger of circulating inferior ropes that could cause accidents. Such accidents would leave people injured and the boat damaged, its Head of Operations, Adegboyega Roberts, said at a briefing in Lagos at the weekend.
