What's the right place to put this? Writing a CMS in CI.

Aren't you not patient enough?

Don't know about you, but over here it's a public holiday weekend. And with temperatures of 30C I can imagine people have other things to do then answering your questions.

But I can give you a tip: you're taking the wrong approach by trying to build up everything in your methods.

Look for a template library, use the MY_Controller constructor to setup the page template, use the controller constructor to setup the recurring partials for that controller (like menu's, sidebars, etc) and only deal with the body partial in your method.
