Pure LIE! Philip Emeagwali left Nigeria for USA at the age of 15.
The only tests that measure up to 190(mental age tests) are taken at the maximum age of 12.
No legit standardized adult iq tests measure above 162( SD=15).
Funny enough the dude never took an iq test. His Iq of 190 has always been "alleged to be".

Here we go again with the equalisation of IQ test as a measure of intelligence. People with high IQ’s can score poor on an IQ test, for any number of reasons. My brother scored poorly on his first test, because he didn’t cooperate with the psychologist who administered it — he was five and that kind of behavior is not uncommon at that age. Fortunately, my parents had the wherewithal to have him tested by a private psychologist who went to the trouble of winning his trust, and that time, he maxed out the test. I always keep that in mind as a reminder that we should be cautious in interpreting IQ scores here. And an Aspie friend here was considered slow for many years, because he has a language disability — but as a teenager, he scored above 130, in the gifted range, and is no doubt smarter because his language difficulties still interfere with his ability to take the test. There are lots more reasons why a smart kid could get a poor score — vision problems, dyslexia, ADHD, trauma at home, even lack of sleep.
In view of this, this can never be used as a merit to determine intelligence. This holds ever more true when you consider the test cognitively (historically) favours people with science background.

emegwali that have been proved to be a fraud.The guy never got a Ph.D took University of Michigan to court to force them to award him a Ph.D
A friend of mine just graduated from University of Michigan.
Court case and the denial of degree

"Emeagwali studied for a Ph.D. degree from the University of Michigan from 1987 through 1991. His thesis was not accepted by a committee of internal and external examiners and thus he was not awarded the degree. Emeagwali filed a court challenge, stating that the decision was a violation of his civil rights and that the university had discriminated against him in several ways because of his race. The court challenge was dismissed, as was an appeal to the Michigan state Court of Appeals.[8]"

You're actually wrong in one detail: The Gordon Bell Prize is not the Nobel prize of computing.
The highest honor given to a computer scientist is the Turing Prize.
