Never use directly ! until you are damn sure that it will not be nil. Replace your code as below. You can use if let or guard let to unwrap optionals.

    if let viewControllers: [UIViewController] = self.navigationController?.viewControllers {
                for VC  in viewControllers  {

                    if (VC.isKind(of: ViewController.self)) {

                        bScreen = true
                        self.navigationController?.popToViewController(VC, animated: true)
                    }
                }

                if bScreen == false
                {
                    let homeVC = ViewController()
                    self.navigationController?.pushViewController(homeVC, animated: false)
                }
 } 
else {
     // IF VC is nil
}
