There is no way to get it there.  That is what item 21 of the FAQ says.

CentOS is copied from Red Hat.  So the Red Hat developers put it there,
when RHEL 7 was released.  And item 21 means that after a release there
will be no updates to newer versions.

(But you're asking the wrong persons.  The nano developers have no say
in what Red Hat or any other distro puts in their repos.)
