I tried to find here in SOPT and did not find, I even looked in SOEN but I found a more complete answer in askubuntu, so I will put here what I did to solve, in case the question is duplicated please inform me by the comment that I delete if it is the case.
To add a new user just replace the by your user name:
sudo adduser <username> sudo
If you want to add an existing user to sudo group just do:
sudo usermod -aG sudo <username>
"a" is important so that the user does not leave the other groups, whereas "G" concerns the group where you are placing your user.
Then just go out and log in again for the changes to take effect.

'Cause I don’t know if that would be on-topic here, since it’s not about programming.

In this case they are shell script commands and would fit in bash and not linux?
