Late response, but well, late’s better than never.
The initial constitution of Gran Colombia (which also included Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela) allowed for jus soli (lit. ‘right of soil’ i.e. citizenship by being born in a particular location).
This joint state failed for a variety of reasons (e.g. colonial influence, regional disputes) and each country had to amend/rewrite their respective constitutions. Colombia rewrote their constitution to remove jus soli citizenship after the breakup.
Historical records aren’t precise, but after Ecuador, Panama, and Venezuela separated, the remains of Colombia (the initial ‘parent’ country) likely faced an immigration crisis from the ‘new’ nation-states. Adding additional restrictions on migration when rewriting the Constitution after the breakup was likely an attempt to respond to the immediate migration crisis.
This only works if you go to the green countries:
