I’ve seen this happen sometimes due to a previous version of the CLI installed. You either might want to first npm uninstall the CLI and then install it again. Or you might want to delete this folder -> '/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@aws-amplify/ and then install the CLI.

remove the older version from your system should resolve the problem.
