Ekanem Ufia EKANEM, Petitioner, v. Alberto R. GONZALES, Attorney General, Respondent, 138 F. App'x 515

PER CURIAM: Ekanem Ufia Ekanem, a native and citizen of Nigeria, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board). The order denied his motion to reopen the Board’s

summary dismissal of his appeal from the Immigration Judge’s order denying relief from removal. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and find no abuse of discretion in the Board’s denial of the motion to reopen. See 8 C.F.R. §§ 1003.1(d)(2)(i)(E); 1003.2(a)(2005). In addition, we deny Ekanem’s pending motion for a stay of removal. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(f)(2) (2000). Accordingly, though we grant Ekanem’s motion to proceed on appeal in forma pauperis, we deny the petition for review. 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
