Évariste Ngamana backs the government’s interpretation that Central African nationality cannot be held alongside another nationality, at the heart of the dispute with opposition politician Anicet-Georges Dologuélé. The position forms part of the debate over the rules on losing and regaining nationality, reported by Corbeaunews Centrafrique.

Évariste Ngamana, presented as the great sorcerer of Carnot, defends the government’s interpretation of the rule on Central African nationality in the Anicet-Georges Dologuélé case. “The law simply says that Central African nationality is one and exclusive,” he said at a press conference, reports Corbeaunews Centrafrique.

According to Évariste Ngamana, this position means that a Central African cannot hold another nationality. Opposition politician Anicet-Georges Dologuélé disputes this legal interpretation in a debate concerning the conditions for losing and being reinstated in Central African nationality, according to Corbeaunews Centrafrique.
