PER CURIAM:

     Stephen       Kissi   Owusu,   a     native    and   citizen   of    Ghana,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals (Board) denying his motion to reconsider its decision

upholding the Immigration Judge’s decision denying his motion

for a continuance and entering an order of removal.                      We have

reviewed the administrative record and Owusu’s claims, and find

them to be without merit.                We accordingly find no abuse of

discretion    in    the    denial   of    reconsideration,    see    Narine   v.

Holder, 559 F.3d 246, 249 (4th Cir. 2009), and deny the petition

for review for the reasons stated by the Board.                     See In re:

Owusu (B.I.A. Apr. 20, 2015).                 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
