PER CURIAM:
Babatunde Biodun Otubanjo, a native and citizen of
Nigeria, seeks review of an order of the Board of Immigration
Appeals adopting and affirming the decision of the Immigration
Judge denying his request for a continuance for adjudication of a
petition for alien relative. We have carefully reviewed the record
and conclude that the decision to deny a continuance was not an
abuse of discretion. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.29 (2008); Onyeme v. INS,
146 F.3d 227, 231 (4th Cir. 1998). We accordingly deny the
petition for review. 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
