Fuiono Tenina Crichton (born 1951)[1] is a Samoan politician and Member of the Legislative Assembly of Samoa. He is a member of the FAST Party.
Fuiono first ran for election in the 2021 Samoan general election.[2] After being defeated by Leota Tima Leavai[3] he challenged her election in an election petition, forcing her resignation.[4] He stood again in the subsequent by-election,[5] where he was declared elected unopposed after successfully challenging his only opponent's eligibility to stand.[1][6]
On 17 January 2025 he was fired as an associate minister by prime minister Fiamē Naomi Mataʻafa after supporting her expulsion from the FAST party.[7] He stepped down at the 2025 election.[8]
