This is most likely a node.js issue with your installation rather than a testrpc problem. Try removing the node_modules directory and reinstalling:

rm -rf node_modules/
npm install

Thanks @dbryson Actually I had to uninstall both testrpc and npm. – Kizito Jun 2 '16 at 0:38
Thanks @dbryson I actually had to remove npm, node and testrpc then go to docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/… to give npm write permissions, install node version 6 and then reinstall npm and ethereumjs-testrpc – Kizito Jun 2 '16 at 0:40
