PER CURIAM:
Akwasi Acheampong, a native and citizen of Ghana, petitions for review of an
order of the Board of Immigration Appeals denying his motion to reconsider the agency’s
previous denial of his motion to reopen sua sponte. We have reviewed the administrative
record and Acheampong’s claims and conclude that we lack jurisdiction to review how
the agency exercises its sua sponte discretion. See Lawrence v. Lynch,
826 F.3d 198,
206-07 (4th Cir. 2016); Mosere v. Mukasey,
552 F.3d 397, 400-01 (4th Cir. 2009). We
accordingly dismiss the petition for review for lack of jurisdiction. 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 DISMISSED
