The “Riverdale” star got the Samoan supervisor title of Savae before town pioneers, according to the local news site Talamua.
“O la’u fautuaga – o le an ou tautua I le tatou aiga mother le tatou nu’u. Fa’afetai I le Atua,” Apa, 25, captioned the post on Wednesday, and that signifies, “I need to serve my family and my town (Moata’a) Thank you God.”
The supervisors as far as anyone knows extolled Apa’s decision to extra embrace his Samoan inheritance and the commitments that appear with the honourary title.
Another outlet, The New Zealand Herald, point by point that, during the capability, Apa in like manner gave a talk in Samoan, saying that he “needed God’s blessings for people of his town, the greater family and all of those present [at the ceremony].”
Elsewhere during the capability, Apa sung tunes, drank from a coconut shell and later removed the traditional dress that he wore to gift them to the town bosses, a standard exhibit, as shown by The Herald.
Apa has as of late quit fooling around with his Samoan heritage. In 2017, he let Vulture in on that his “lifestyle has reliably had a tremendous effect of [his] life,” observing that he’s “been enclosed by the lifestyle since [he] was a young person.”

While appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” in February 2021, the performer got a handle on that he goes by Samoan and that “KJ is short for Keneti James.”
“I’m named after my father,” he shared. Apa’s dad, Tupa’i Keneti, is similarly a chief.
By then, Apa said he didn’t feel “adequate” enough to become chief, when asked with respect to whether he could anytime take on the “colossal commitment.”
