This will take a little work on your part, but The Library of Congress covers the catagory: Surnames by Country.
Here's the link:

A World of Baby Names by Teresa Norman. Over 30,000 names; it doesn't break it down into specific countries like you have listed. For example, Nigeria, Ghana Botswana, Kenya, etc. are in the chapter titled, "African Names." It is a very interesting book.
