PER CURIAM:
Adedokun Idowu Adekoya, a native and citizen of
Nigeria, petitions for review of an order of the Board of
Immigration Appeals (Board) denying his motion to reconsider.
The Board “enjoys broad discretion to grant or deny a motion to
reconsider, . . . .” Jean v. Gonzales,
435 F.3d 475, 483 (4th
Cir. 2006); 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2013). This court reviews a
denial of a motion to reconsider for abuse of discretion. Jean,
435 F.3d at 481.
We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and
find no abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we deny the petition
for review for the reasons stated by the Board. In re: Adekoya
(B.I.A. Feb. 25, 2013). We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the
materials before this court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
