I spend several days setting up the file /etc/sudoers
to be able to give permissions to root to the user jenkins
. I have Jenkins installed on my server
I've tested the solution described by @Jayan in the comments of the question. You must include the new line at the end of the file:

#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# Please consider adding local content in /etc/sudoers.d/ instead of
# directly modifying this file.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.

Defaults mail_badpass
Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"
