I would say Blue-cheeked Bee-eater for one and African Goshawk. I can't really help with the sunbird in the middle though!

The goshawk in West Africa is rather Red-chested Goshawk (Accipiter toussenelii) than African; agreed on Blue-cheeked BE indeed. I don't have West African books here with me, this bird looks like White-bellied Sunbird of Southern Africa, so I wonder is there is a white-bellied form of Variable Sunbird over there?

My thought too (and no book to hand to check it out either).

The raptor is a sub-adult Shikra.

I agree on Shikra of course (my answer was just about taxonomy).
