I have tried to re-install node-gyp and node_expat both natively and using npm as well as node-gyp rebuild in the /usr/lib/node_modules/node-expat/ directory all to no avail.
_In a bid to see if it was a configuration error on my machine, I spawned a fresh ubuntu 16.04 64 bit VPS installed nodejs 7.7.1 and tried to run the same only to get the same error _
I will greatly appreciate your assistance
