You're trying to create a new signal here, but as a subclass of
clutter.Actor the group already defines a signal with that name.

Connecting a callback to the ::motion-event signal is the right thing to
do, but an actor needs to be reactive in order to emit pointer events [1].
self.set_reactive(True)
