PER CURIAM:

     Francis Nwankwo appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (1994) petition.     We have reviewed

the record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible

error.   Accordingly, we affirm substantially on the reasoning of

the district court.     Nwankwo v. Warden, No. CA-00-831 (E.D.N.C.

Feb. 15, 2001); see United States v. White, 238 F.3d 537, 542-43

(4th Cir.) (holding that when there are multiple counts of con-

viction, statutory maximum sentence on each count may be aggregated

to reach the appropriate sentence within the applicable guidelines

range), cert. denied,      U.S.       , 121 S. Ct. 2235 (2001); In re

Jones, 226 F.3d 328, 329-30 (4th Cir. 2000) (explaining applicabil-

ity of savings clause in 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2001).    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.
