Custom UITableViewController structure

I am making a custom table view which has content 'Static Cells' and style 'Grouped'. I want to insert static contents programatically. I can do init the view by:

MyCustomViewController *myCustomViewController = [[MyCustomViewController alloc] init];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:myCustomViewController animated:TRUE];

I want to make 3 sections in the table view, one section having 2 cells and the other two sections having 1 cell. Have populated dynamics cells previously but no idea on how to deal with this creation of sections and varying number of cells within. Any solutions?

enter image description here

This should help you!

- (void)viewDidLoad
{

    [super viewDidLoad];

    NSArray *firstSection = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"Red", @"Blue", nil];
    NSArray *secondSection = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"Orange", @"Green", @"Purple", nil];
    NSArray *thirdSection = [NSArray arrayWithObject:@"Yellow"];

    NSMutableArray *array = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:firstSection, secondSection, thirdSection, nil];
    [self setContentsList:array];
    array = nil;


}
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{

    [super viewWillAppear:animated];

    [[self mainTableView] reloadData];

}


- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInTableView:(UITableView *)tableView
{

    NSInteger sections = [[self contentsList] count];

    return sections;
}

- (NSInteger)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
 numberOfRowsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{

    NSArray *sectionContents = [[self contentsList] objectAtIndex:section];
    NSInteger rows = [sectionContents count];

    NSLog(@"rows is: %d", rows);
    return rows;
}

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView
         cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{

    NSArray *sectionContents = [[self contentsList] objectAtIndex:[indexPath section]];
    NSString *contentForThisRow = [sectionContents objectAtIndex:[indexPath row]];

    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"CellIdentifier";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil)
        {
        cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
        }

    [[cell textLabel] setText:contentForThisRow];

    return cell;
}
