Caught a glimpse of this, turned to look and it flew off. It was too far to get a good look at and the attached picture is the only one I managed to snap before it flew off out of sight.
I lean toward a female sunbird (like my last post here) but that's really a guess. If forced I'd go with female Nile Valley Sunbird, they're not uncommon here, the bill shape seems to match, and while it looks like this bird has a white supercilium, it's not as big as it should be on a Shining Sunbird. Basically, I'm stumped.
