Thank you Mike for the reply!
One of my co-worker helped me out. Basically, I was using nested with_items 
in two playbook.
I have playbook1 running with_items to include playbook2 with tasks which 
also trying to use with_items, so it failed in the 2nd playbook which the 
with_items are not looping using new value, still using the items in 
playbook1.

Ansible team, is what I described correct? I think I may need to redo the 
playbook with with_nested see if I can make it work.
