TWITTER API error 220 -: twitteroauth

Question

Good evening all,

I am using the PHP code from https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth

The login works perfectly but when trying to post a status to Twitter i get the following error:

stdClass Object ( [errors] => Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [code] => 220 [message] =>      Your credentials do not allow access to this resource. ) ) )

I am using the following code:

session_start();
require_once('twitteroauth/twitteroauth.php');
require_once('config.php');

$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, $_SESSION['oauth_token'],
$_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);

$token_credentials = $connection->getAccessToken($_REQUEST['oauth_verifier']);


$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, $token_credentials['oauth_token'],
$token_credentials['oauth_token_secret']);

$account = $connection->get('account/verify_credentials');
$status = $connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => 'Text of status here'));

I have followed the same instructions as the website. Where am i going wrong?
