Use twitter4j. It works with Android. There are some usage examples.

A direct example on how to tweet on Android (assumes a Twitter account is available on device which means a Twitter client is present): http://blog.radioactiveyak.com/2011/04/using-twitter4j-to-tweet-in-android.html

If you want to save yourself from the hassles of using twitter4j api where the use of oAuth etc. is required, you can try using a web-intent in a WebView shown in a dialog. Have a look on the following tutorial https://dev.twitter.com/docs/intents

You will be able to tweet once the username and password has been entered and saved. Although the use of Web-Intent might be discouraged, but it's easiest hack you can try.
