Storyboard returns nil need some quick advise how to instantiate

I run into the following problem. In my iPad app using storyboard.

-(UIViewController *)SetDetailVideoView
{
    // assign/instantiate self. storyboard, but how?
    VideosViewController *vc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"VideoViewController"]; //empty but why? Because self.storyboard is empty
    NSLog(@"%@",self.storyboard); //NULL
    return vc;
}

Self.storyboard returns nil so everything it try to get return nil and gives an exemption? So how do i instantiate self.storboard.

I don't like the hard coded style. You can also use:

[self.navigationController.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"VideoViewController"];

Use below code to instantiate your storyboard 

self.storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"MainStoryboard_iPad" bundle:nil];
