Fubara

MEMORANDUM

Jane Inye Fubara, a native and citizen of Nigeria, petitions for review of a final decision issued by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”), affirming an Immigration Judge’s (“IJ”) denial of cancellation of removal from the United States. We deny the petition for review.

“Where, as here, the BIA adopts the IJ’s decision while adding its own reasons, we review both decisions.” Katana v. INS, 232 F.3d 1107, 1112 (9th Cir.2000). Credibility findings by the IJ and the BIA are reviewed for substantial evidence. Ramos-Vasquez v. INS, 57 F.3d 857, 861 (9th Cir.1995).
