Below is a copy of my sudo file
rimini is the group I'm having problems with, I can sudo to viprsrm without the parse error.
# sudoers file.

# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
# Failure to use 'visudo' may result in syntax or file permission errors

You should try running visudo as root. Chances are there is a syntax error on the first line. If you just want to check the syntax you can run:
# visudo -c
