PER CURIAM:

       Richard Apongwa Chungong, a native of Cameroon, seeks review

of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“Board”) decision to deny his

motion to reopen his deportation proceedings for the purpose of

applying for suspension of deportation and asylum.          Our review of

the record discloses that the Board properly denied Chungong’s

motion to reconsider and motion to reopen his deportation proceed-

ings and that this appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm

on the reasoning of the Board. See In re: Richard Apongwa Chungong,

No. A70-302-326 (BIA Oct. 18, 1999).         We dispense with oral argu-

ment   because   the   facts   and   legal   contentions   are   adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.

                                                                   AFFIRMED
