PER CURIAM:
Bernard Akwasi Acheampong, a native and citizen of
Ghana, petitions for review of an order of the Board of
Immigration Appeals (Board) denying relief from removal. We
have reviewed the administrative record and Acheampong’s claims
and agree with the agency decision that he is removable for
having been convicted of an aggravated felony. See 8 U.S.C.
§ 1227(a)(2)(A)(iii) (2006). We accordingly deny the petition
for review. See In re: Acheampong (B.I.A. May 14, 2009). 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
