It was originally created in 1959, under Spanish colonial administration, under the name of Centro Laboral La Salle de Bata.

After independence in 1968, the college was renamed to honor Enrique Nvó Okenve, a martyr for independence and founder of the Idea Popular de Guinea Ecuatorial. Okenve's nationalist ideas and his rise to power in sections of northern Río Muni concerned Spanish-appointed Governor-General Faustino Ruiz González, who has been alleged to be responsible for contract killers who assassinated Okenve in 1959.[1]

Renovation of the Malabo site and reconditioning of the Bata site has been funded by USAID.[2]

Notable people
gollark: Well, they have short descriptions of many of the ideas on the website.
gollark: I have not actually read any of it. I just said it seemed interesting as an idea.
gollark: There's this interesting book (http://radicalmarkets.com/) - I haven't read it, but I have heard lots about it - apparently it has policy proposals for reworking markets to do some stuff more effectively, which is what I'm interested in.
gollark: Perhaps you could solve all those issues, but I think it would be much harder than solving the ones we have *now*.
gollark: I mean, some of the issues I have would be gone without market systems, yes, but you would then introduce new much bigger ones.
