PER CURIAM:
Zeleke

Yonas-Aga,

a

native

and

citizen

of

Ethiopia,

petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals

(Board)

dismissing

his

appeal

from

the

Immigration

Judge’s denial of his requests for asylum and withholding of
removal.

We have thoroughly reviewed the record and conclude

that the record evidence does not compel a ruling contrary to
any

of

the

agency’s

factual

findings,

see

8

U.S.C.

§ 1252(b)(4)(B) (2012), and that substantial evidence supports
the Board’s decision, INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481
(1992).

Accordingly, we deny the petition for review for the

reasons

stated

Apr. 8, 2015).

by

the

Board.

See

In

re

Yonas-Aga

(B.I.A.

We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before

this

court

and

argument

would

not

aid

the

decisional

process.
PETITION DENIED
