PER CURIAM:

               Reuben Olugbenga Oke, a native and citizen of Nigeria,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals (“Board”) denying his motion to reopen.                        We deny the

petition for review.

                We review the denial of a motion to reopen or reconsider

with       extreme   deference   and   only    for   an   abuse   of    discretion.

Stewart v. INS, 181 F.3d 587, 595 (4th Cir. 1999).                     Such motions

are especially disfavored “in a deportation proceeding, where, as

a general matter, every delay works to the advantage of the

deportable alien who wishes merely to remain in the United States.”

INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323 (1992).             A motion to reopen “must

be filed no later than 90 days after the date on which the final

administrative decision was rendered.”*               8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(c)(2)

(2006).

               Because Oke filed the motion to reopen beyond the ninety-

day period for filing such motions, we find the Board did not abuse

its discretion.        Accordingly, 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




       *
        None of the exceptions to the ninety-day period apply.
