Brief howto .............

to enable sudo for a non priveleged user

you will need to

1/   edit /etc/sudoers  (you need root passwd to do so)

2/
   you will need to boot in safe mode (runlevel 1) from grub  & create a 
root password as below:

#passwd

3/ add a line to /etc/sudoers   ( run visudo) as below:
your_username ALL=(ALL) ALL

4/ reboot &
prepend sudo to all priveleged system commands.

You may need this explained in more detail ( as very brief).

Cheers
