Jatau made the appeal in a letter dated October 7, 2026, following Keana’s remand by a Federal High Court in Lafia over allegations related to publications about the governor. Keana faces a two-count charge of alleged false information, with a bail hearing scheduled for November 26. Jatau stated he has no personal relationship with Keana and acted solely on humanitarian considerations.
