USCA4 Appeal: 23-1522      Doc: 19         Filed: 04/05/2024      Pg: 2 of 2

        PER CURIAM:

               Guylain Cibaka Tshizubu, a native and citizen of the Democratic Republic of the

        Congo, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals dismissing

        his appeal from the Immigration Judge’s denial of his applications for asylum, withholding

        of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture. We have reviewed the

        record and Tshizubu’s claims and conclude that the evidence does not compel a ruling

        contrary to any of the administrative factual findings, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B), and

        that substantial evidence supports the denial of relief, see Herrera-Alcala v. Garland, 39

        F.4th 233, 245 (4th Cir. 2022) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we deny the

        petition for review. In re Tshizubu (B.I.A. Apr. 14, 2023). 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

                                                     2
