You can add UINavigationController like below :

First you have to create object of SecondViewController,

let objVC: SecondViewController? = storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "SecondViewController")

Or

let objVC: SecondViewController? = SecondViewController(nibName: "SecondViewController", bundle: nil)

Or

let objVC: SecondViewController? = SecondViewController()

Then add Navigation to SecondViewController

let aObjNavi = UINavigationController(rootViewController: objVC!)

If you want to present then use :

self.present(aObjNavi, animated: true) { 
}

If you want to push then use :

self.navigationController?.pushViewController(aObjNavi, animated: true)

If you want to set as root controller then use :

let appDelegate: AppDelegate = (UIApplication.shared.delegate as? AppDelegate)!
appDelegate.window?.rootViewController = aObjNavi
