PER CURIAM:
Nde Melvis Ngwenyi, a native and citizen of Cameroon, petitions for review of an
order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (Board) dismissing her appeal from the
immigration judge’s denial of her applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and
protection under the Convention Against Torture. We have thoroughly reviewed the
record, including the transcript of Ngwenyi’s merits hearing and all supporting evidence.
We conclude that the record evidence does not compel a ruling contrary to any of the
administrative factual findings, see 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(4)(B) (2018)—including the
adverse credibility finding—and that substantial evidence supports the denial of relief in
this case, see INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 481 (1992). Accordingly, we deny the
petition for review for the reasons stated by the Board. In re Ngwenyi (B.I.A. July 5, 2019).
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
