Basile Paul Bougha, a native and citizen of Cameroon, petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals affirming the Immigration Judge’s (IJ) denial of his applications for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture.

To obtain reversal of a determination denying eligibility for relief, an alien “must show that the evidence he presented was so compelling that no reasonable factfinder could fail to find the requisite fear of persecution.” INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 483-84, 112 S.Ct. 812, 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992). We have reviewed the evidence of record and conclude that Bougha fails to show that the evidence compels a contrary result. Having failed to qualify for asylum, Bougha cannot meet the higher standard to qualify for withholding of removal. Chen v. INS, 195 F.3d 198, 205 (4th Cir. 1999); INS v. Cardoza-Fonseca, 480 U.S. 421, 430, 107 S.Ct. 1207, 94 L.Ed.2d 434 (1987).

Bougha further asserts that he was denied due process at the asylum hearing because the Immigration Court did not provide him with a competent and reliable interpreter. We reject this claim because Bougha fails to show that he was prejudiced by the alleged error. See Rusu v. INS, 296 F.3d 316, 320 (4th Cir. 2002). Fi *68 nally, we uphold the IJ’s finding that Bougha failed to establish that it was more likely than not that he would be tortured if removed to Cameroon. See 8 C.F.R. § 1208.16(c)(2) (2004).

Accordingly, we deny the petition for review. 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.
