You need a newer version of python or an older version of ansible.  Ansible-2.3 was the last release series to support python-2.4 on the managed machines (it still required python-2.6 or greater on the controller but you could manage machines with only python 2.4 installed ).

Installing Python 2.7 and setting the right path solved the issue. Thank you.
