you can use the following code if any error then tell me

-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{ [super viewWillAppear:YES];

UIBarButtonItem *flipButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
                               initWithTitle:@"Pending"
                               style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered
                               target:self
                               action:@selector(flipView)];

self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = flipButton;

} -(void)flipView { }

Try this,

let newBackButton = UIBarButtonItem(title: "SomeOtherTitle", style: UIBarButtonItemStyle.Bordered, target: self, action: "back:")
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = newBackButton;

func back(sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
    self.popViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
}
