Try this.

NSString *badgeVal = @"5"; //Unread message count
[[self navigationController] tabBarItem].badgeValue = badgeVal;

or

[[self.tabBarController.tabBar.items objectAtIndex:<your item position>] setBadgeValue:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d",badgeVal]];

Well, just use the badgeValue property of the UITabbarItem:

You need to simply set badgeValue property of tabBarItem for that.

NSString *badgeVal = @"5"; //Unread message count
[[[[self.tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:2] tabBarItem] setBadgeValue:badgeVal];

Note : I have access 3rd ViewController using objectAtIndex:2 because you want to set badge for the 3rd UITabBarItem.
