  Vitaliy Mykolayovych Oluiko (Ukrainian: Віталій Миколайович Олуйко; born 2 January 1961, Yampil, Ukraine) is a Ukrainian politician, former member of the Verkhovna Rada (Ukraine's national parliament).
  
  Soon after graduating the university, in 1983-1985 he worked on leading positions at local kolkhoz in Yampil. In 1985-1987 he headed the Komsomol of Ukraine in Bilohiria Raion and in 1987-1991 among the leaders of Khmelnytskyi Oblast. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, in 1991-1992 Oluiko headed the coordination council of Podolia Youth League.
  
  In 1992-2000 he worked on leading positions at local government of Khmelnytskyi Oblast.
  
  In 2002-2006 Oluiko was a member of the Verkhovna Rada representing People's Democratic Party within the For United Ukraine! bloc.
  
  While being a parliamentary, in 2005 he served as a Governor of Khmelnytskyi Oblast.
  
  In the 2006 and 2007 Ukrainian parliamentary election Oluiko failed to get reelected to parliament as a candidate of Lytvyn Bloc.
  
  In the 2012 Ukrainian parliamentary election Oluiko failed again to return to parliament as a candidate for Party of Regions in (first-past-the-post) single-member district number 189 located around Krasyliv. He gained second place with 18.62% of the votes, losing to the candidate of Svoboda Ihor Sabii who gained 19.40%.
  
  Oluiko last attempt to return to the national parliament in the 2014 Ukrainian parliamentary election was again unsuccessful as his party Strong Ukraine failed to clear the 5% election threshold (it got 3.11% of the votes) and Oluiko was placed 46th on its national list (the party did win one constituency seat and thus one parliamentary seat).
