PER CURIAM:

           Benedicta I. Abode, a native and citizen of Nigeria,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration

Appeals   (“Board”)   denying   her   motion   to   reopen   immigration

proceedings. We have reviewed the record and the Board’s order and

find that the Board did not abuse its discretion in denying Abode’s

motion.   See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(a) (2005).     Accordingly, we deny the

petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board.          See In

re: Abode, No. A75-376-812 (B.I.A. Nov. 30, 2004).           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
