2x ModuleNotFoundError Jupyter notebook

Question

While attempting to run jupyter notebook in python3.6.3 on my gnome terminal I get the following output, running on UBUNTU:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/willem/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/notebook/services/sessions/sessionmanager.py", line 10, in <module>
     import sqlite3
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/sqlite3/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
     from sqlite3.dbapi2 import *
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/sqlite3/dbapi2.py", line 27, in <module>
     from _sqlite3 import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_sqlite3'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/willem/.local/bin/jupyter-notebook", line 7, in <module>
     from notebook.notebookapp import main
  File "/home/willem/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/notebook/notebookapp.py", line 81, in <module>
     from .services.sessions.sessionmanager import SessionManager
  File "/home/willem/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/notebook/services/sessions/sessionmanager.py", line 13, in <module>
     from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as sqlite3
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pysqlite2'

However, the module sqlite3 is present in my python3.6.3 directory. Which makes the problem rather vague.

Any suggestions for this problem to be fixed will be greatly appreciated
