Tanzanian citizen Peter Agaba Ngobya petitions for review of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals upholding an immigration judge’s decision to deny his application for asylum. After careful consideration of the issues before us, 2 we deny the petition, because we conclude that substantial evidence supports the finding that Ngobya failed to establish past persecution or a well-founded fear of future persecution, due to any protected ground. See Matul-Hernandez v. Holder, 685 F.3d 707, 710-13 (8th Cir. 2012). The petition for review is denied. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
