OPINION OF THE COURT

Prince Bernard Aggrey, a native and citizen of Ghana, petitions for review of a final order of removal issued by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”). We will deny the petition.

I.

Aggrey unlawfully entered in the United States in 2002 and subsequently sought asylum, statutory withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture alleging religious persecution. The Immigration Judge (“IJ”) found Aggrey removable as charged. The IJ also denied relief from removal, finding that Aggrey’s testimony was not credible and that his allegations nonetheless failed to satisfy his burden of proof. The BIA affirmed without opinion on February 4, 2005. On April 8, 2005, the BIA denied Aggrey’s motion for reconsideration, finding that Aggrey had failed to identify any particular errors in their prior decision. Aggrey filed a pro se petition for review on May 9, 2005.

II.

Aggrey alleges errors in the IJ’s decision, and thereby challenges the BIA’s February 4th order of affirmance. However, we lack authority to review that order because Aggrey did not file a timely petition for review within 30 days of the order. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1). Furthermore, the motion for reconsideration did not toll the running of the appeal period. Stone v. Immigration & Naturalization Service, 514 U.S. 386, 115 S.Ct. 1537, 131 L.Ed.2d 465 (1995).

III.

The petition for review is, however, timely as to the BIA’s April 8th order denying Aggrey’s motion for reconsideration. See 8 U.S.C. § 1252(b)(1); Nocon v. Immigration & Naturalization Service, 789 F.2d 1028, 1032-33 (3d Cir. 1986). We review the denial of reconsideration for abuse of discretion. Borges v. Gonzales, 402 F.3d 398, 404 (3d Cir. 2005).

A motion to reconsider must specify the errors of law or fact in the BIA’s prior decision. 8 C.F.R. § 1003.2(b)(1). As Aggrey failed to identify any such errors, the BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion.

*97 Aggrey’s allegations in his brief of a denial of due process and of the right to counsel were not raised in his motion for reconsideration. To the extent he is alleging error in the BIA’s review of his motion for reconsideration, we assume without deciding that we have subject matter jurisdiction over the claims 1 and find them to be without merit.

Accordingly, we will deny the petition for review.
