Uti Petelo is an American Samoan politician and member of the American Samoa Senate.
Petelo is from Leloaloa, American Samoa.[1] He was elected to the Senate following the death of Faumuina Tagisialii.[1] 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.[2] He was re-elected to the Senate at the 2020 election.[3]
