@tapairportugal I have been trying to request a covid-related flight change since 4.30pm this afternoon… (five hours later 😒

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@BBCNewsnight want to thank you for finishing with a soul-lifting segment on art last night - and including the magical Barbara Hepworth painting of ecclesiastical surgeons and their glowing hands. Simply wonderful...

Saw @christophermcg8 stand up last night - working class comic/ working class humour/working class experiences -it was hilarious and heartbreaking at the same time & I have never been in a theatre with so many working class people before - proof if you offer it they will come

Thanks to @celiahatton & @DayoForster for the great chat today on @bbcworldservice Weekend. Good discussions on US elections, Syria, Afghanistan, + broader questions re conflict, development, race & gender: https://t.co/EmWfHUtg7E

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@ruth_buse It’s available as an e-book on Amazon, if that helps?

“Any luck with the chi-squareds and ANOVAs?” This is a line you're unlikely to read in most novels, but you'll find it in the refreshing *Reading the Ceiling* by @DayoForster @DeanStPress https://t.co/lWh8Bj4Rdx

#Financialinclusion expert @DayoForster tells us move to #cashless society has to be managed to ensure no-one left behind @WorldRemit lunchtime talk with @kikiochieng

Look what I found in the Library today; Reading the Ceiling by @DayoForster and then I realize the Author is Gambian born but lives in Kenya at the time of publishing.

@epwa66 Was wonderful meeting you at Africa Writes. As promised, here is a link to my micro-blog (as originally posted with mistakes and in tiredness): https://t.co/jmLr53mqJK

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@TapiwaMugabe1 Loved your @tedxskoll poem - short and deep.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

I ignore as much of the #inauguration as I can, I go on #Londonwomensmarch; I come home and tho #GambiaHasDecided Jammeh's still not gone?

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@samirasawlani News is troops are everywhere but holding out on taking over the capital. Some resistance in Jammeh's village Kanilai.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@cobbo3 True. But Jammeh is still holed up somewhere so he must still think he has one last card to play. Hope he is out-thinked...

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@molarawood The truth is he has out-Machiavellied us. He is unpredictable. He's tried being a bully, a lawyer. Guerilla leader still poss.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@cobbo3 I completely agree. Buhari has been superb, and Sirleaf-Johnson too. The eccentricities of our ex-President were seen & believed.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@HenryCCTang @bbcworldservice @bbcweekend Happy to. Will drop you an email.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

Thank you @BBCNewsnight and the put-you-at-ease @KirstyWark for the chance to talk about The #Gambia, experienced through my family.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@wangusim Many thanks. Most of the Gambia deserted him a long time ago. Now we look towards minimal damage as he exits.

[Dayo Forster @DayoForster]

@BBC_AudreyB You were watching! I loved every minute, and glad I got to talk about home from my family's viewpoint.
