Hi Melvin,
Can you give me a quick update where you've got to so that I can pick it up from there. Do you have VUM in your environment?
If you're not comfortable with PowerShell scripting, then it might be easier to remove the VIB's manually from the DCUI using ESXCLI - are you able to SSH onto the affected host (you need to start this service first)?
Let me know what your preference is PowerShell or ESXCLI from the shell and I'll help out with step-by-step instructions.
Here is some additional reading for you;

Hypervisor Version | Local Command | vCLI Remote Command | PowerCLI Remote Command |
ESXi 5.0 | esxcli software vib update −−depot=/vmfs/volumes/[datastore]/<zip> | esxcli software vib update −−depot=/vmfs/volumes/[datastore]/<zip> | Install-VMHostPatch |
Or Get-ESXCLI with the local command referenced in this table. |
Cheers,
Jon
