## Opinion text

PER CURIAM.
Stephen Akin Molajoye, a native and citizen of Nigeria, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“Board”) denying his motion to reopen and for reconsideration. We have reviewed the administrative record and the Board’s order and find that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying Molajoye’s motion to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2 (a) (2003); INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323-24 , 112 S.Ct. 719 , 116 L.Ed.2d 823 (1992). Accordingly, we deny the petition for review on the reasoning of the Board. See In re: Molajoye, No. A29-625-532 (B.I.A. Dec. 16, 2002). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED.
