Adding significance to a plot with facet_nested

I want to add the level of significance my plots with facet_nested, I initially used an old code but it doesn't seem to be working this time around. In the end, I want a plot like the one below.

It looks like the facet_nested function come from the ggh4x package. You will need to install and load it.

install.packages("ggh4x")
library(ggh4x)

I have it in my main code, I will update my post

I wonder if geom_signif has a problem with barplots?

library(ggplot2)
library(ggsignif)

ggplot(iris, aes(x = Species, y = Sepal.Length)) +
  geom_bar( stat = "identity") + # using `ggsignif` to display comparison of interest
  geom_signif(
    comparisons = list(c("versicolor", "virginica")),
    map_signif_level = TRUE
  )

If you change to a boxplot things seem to work.

ibrary(tidyverse)
library(ggthemes)
library(ggsignif)
library(ggh4x)

p <- ggplot(tgc, aes(x = Condition, y = Abs_IDE), fill = test) +
  geom_boxplot() + facet_nested(. ~ Session + Group )

p +    geom_signif( comparisons = list(c("CEN", "IPS", "CTL")))

p <- ggplot(tgc, aes(x = Condition, y = Abs_IDE), fill = test) +
  geom_boxplot() + facet_nested(. ~ Session + Group )

p +    geom_signif( comparisons = list(c("CEN", "IPS", "CTL")))
