I have sold my forum, but the new owner is not allowed to change my status. Keeps getting the following message:

You do not have permission to edit this user because you are not a super administrator

All his settings appear the same as mine. How can I resolve this, please?

You need to edit ./inc/config.php.

Thank you very much!
I went to this file as you recommended but was unable to see any listed User ID's. What else can I do?

open inc/config.php and find :-
$config['super_admins'] = 'x';

where x = your user id number and change it to the user id number of the new owner
Not in this land alone,
But be God's mercies known,
From shore to shore!
Lord make the nations see,
That men should brothers be,
And form one family,
The wide world ov'er
