Judgment No. CCZ 4/15 13 Civil Appeal No. CCZ 27/13 (34) Section 42 does not and cannot have an overriding effect on the other provisions of Chapter 3. If anything, it complements these other provisions and is not inconsistent with them. (35) Consequently, on a proper reading of all the provisions of Chapter 3, the inference is irresistible that dual citizenship in respect of citizens by birth is not proscribed. Such citizenship exists by operation of law. (36) It was for the above reasons that, after hearing counsel, we made the order reflected in paragraph 2 of this judgment.
