Bench update python2.7 error after Centos7 update

Machine is my home computer.
Did the “this one” suggests…

May 1st edit:
These were the commands used;
sudo pip uninstall requests
sudo pip uninstall urllib3
sudo yum remove python-urllib3
sudo yum remove python-requests
(confirm that all those libraries have been removed)
sudo yum install python-urllib3
sudo yum install python-requests

As a side note I did notice this message:

You are using pip version 8.1.2, however version 20.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the ‘pip install --upgrade pip’ command.

I did not do anything with awscli and it is not installed.

After uninstalling and re installing per the article…Tried, bench console - and it worked!! No bench commands have worked to this point…

Now I am nervous as to what to do next - bearing in mind that this was a working installation prior.
Should I try bench update?
Suggestions please? before I try further commands.
