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 by the Board. See In re Yonas-Aga (B.I.A.
Apr. 8, 2015). 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
