Menu won't show in navigation bar


im trying to add a (+) icon on right of navigation bar in android, and then launch a new intent when clicked, but i can't seem to make it work, it's showing me the left icon to open/close the drawer, but the right icon is nowhere to be found.

Can anyone give me a hand on why its not working? im loosing my mind here...

The navigation bar looks like this, there's enough room for the right side Navigation bar
