    July 17, 1997
    Before JONES, DeMOSS and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:*
    Okwy Godwin Achusi (Godwin) petitions for review of the
    Board of Immigration Appeals's decision that he will not suffer
    “extreme hardship” if he is deported to Nigeria.    See 
    8 U.S.C. § 1254
    (a)(1).   Godwin has failed to establish that he will suffer
    the type of unique or unusually severe hardship which would
    compel a finding of “extreme hardship” by the Board.    See
    Hernandez-Cordero v. INS, 
    819 F.2d 558
    , 562-63 (5th Cir. 1987)
    *
    Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
    that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
    except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R.
    47.5.4.
    No.
    - 2 -
    (en banc).   The Board did not abuse its discretion in denying his
    application for suspension of deportation.   See 
    id.
    PETITION DENIED.
