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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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.
