Obioha,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals (Board) denying her motions to reopen.

We have reviewed

the administrative record and Obioha’s claims * and find no abuse
of discretion.

See INS v. Doherty, 502 U.S. 314, 323-24 (1992)

(setting forth standard of review).

Accordingly, we deny the

petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board.

PETITION DENIED

*

Obioha does not challenge the Board’s finding that she
failed to demonstrate prima facie eligibility for relief under
the Convention Against Torture, the Board’s denial of her 2013
motion to reopen, or the Board’s refusal to sua sponte reopen
proceedings.
She has therefore abandoned these claims on
appeal.
See Suarez-Valenzuela v. Holder, 714 F.3d 241, 248-49
(4th Cir. 2013).
