Using presentViewController from UIView

Question

I am creating a title bar for my iOS application and I am making this inside a UIView. The only issue I am having is with the "home button". When the home button is pressed, it needs to go to the home page, which is ViewController.

However, it doesn't look as if [self presentViewController:vc animated:NO completion:NULL]; works for UIView.

How do I work around this problem ?

- (void) createTitlebar {

    CGRect titleBarFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 55);

    //Create the home button on the top right of the page. When clicked, it will navigate to the home page of the application
    homeButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
    homeButton.frame = CGRectMake(275, 10, 40, 40);
    [homeButton setTag:1];
    [homeButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"homeIcon.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [homeButton addTarget:self action:@selector(homeButtonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
    [self addSubview:homeButton];
}

- (IBAction)homeButtonPressed:(id)sender{

    //Transition to the submit button page
    UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard" bundle:nil];
    ViewController *vc = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"ViewController"];
    [vc setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationFullScreen];
    [self presentViewController:vc animated:NO completion:NULL];
}

You can do this without using the delegate pattern. Here you go

ObjectiveC

UIViewController *currentTopVC = [self currentTopViewController];
currentTopVC.presentViewController......... 

- (UIViewController *)currentTopViewController {
    UIViewController *topVC = [[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate] window] rootViewController];
    while (topVC.presentedViewController) {
        topVC = topVC.presentedViewController;
    }
    return topVC;
}

Swift

var topVC = UIApplication.sharedApplication().keyWindow?.rootViewController
while((topVC!.presentedViewController) != nil) {
     topVC = topVC!.presentedViewController
}
topVC?.presentViewController........
