I am not sure what you mean by a package. Presumably a package in
Termux? I installed Termux from F-droid I think. And then I installed
emacs from the Termux command line using:

pkg install emacs

and then I ran gnus with

emacs -f gnus

Also I installed openssh so I could transfer emacs config files via sftp.

If you don't have any news server configured you can use gnus-no-server
and then press B to prompt for one.
