Yes, it is, when you don't notice the admixture of nations in the lineup. But more importantly, you don't understand the significance of the numbers. There is very little intellectual variation in the range of 90-110 I.Q. Here are the same numbers, with additional information. https://international-iq-test.com/en/test/IQ_by_country I draw your attention to the number of participants, and the fact that this testing is self-selected. Most African national samples are a few hundreds, representing tens of millions. This can lead to larger standard deviations than suggested by the reporting accuracy of the values. There is no way that any individual I.Q. can be measured to better than a single point, if that. The two numbers after the decimal are strictly artifacts of the averaging process for a sample population. (I do have a background in statistical measurement.)
About the only thing that can be inferred from the global distribution is that the mean I.Q. tends to be higher in countries that have a strong educational culture. This is not terribly surprising. The United States ranks 18th out of all. Why so low? Maybe stupid Democrats ruin the sample? Do we have reason to hang our heads?
If you want an outlier, it would be Somalia. It's neighbor, Ethiopia, is 12 points higher. Most of Africa below the equator is in the regime of 93 to 96. Do you think you are superior to another person if your I.Q. is 5 points higher? Do you think they are superior to you if theirs were higher? Would you acknowledge they are superior? You see, you can't go around swaggering over the question of I.Q. There is always someone out there who has more reason to look down on you, than you have for looking down on anyone else.
It's not casual racism when we have data to support it. Some of the lowest average IQ's come from Africa.

All you have done is pointed out outliers in a population.
