Tanzania or Kenya, probably.

I have a similar head and tail, which came with a human-figure-carved centre wood section - a fancy tourist version of the classic East African three-piece spear. Much shorter than the real thing.

If I knew where it was, I'd photograph it for comparison, but that's a tricky "if". In the absence of mine, I've attached a photo of a similar spear, of total length about 1 metre. Also, for comparison, a couple of full-size non-tourist East African spears (Maasai). If the heads/tails in your OP are close to the size of this tourist example - much smaller than the real thing - then they are almost certainly from similar tourist spears (not necessarily with the figural handle).
