Uti Petelo Iuliano Sua (died 11 January 2026) is an American Samoan politician and member of the American Samoa Senate.
Petelo is from Leloaloa, American Samoa.[3] He was elected to the Senate following the death of Faumuina Tagisialii.[3] At the 2016 election chiefs were unable to reach a consensus on who should fill the seat, resulting in Tilo Vasaga Tilo being elected by lot.[4] He was re-elected to the Senate at the 2020 election.[5]
