Eulade Rudahunga was a Rwandan priest for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Butare in the Republic of Rwanda from August 2, 1953, to 2019. He served as a chaplain for different parishes until he received the title of Monsignor by Pope John Paul II.[1]

He worked as a teacher and taught well-known Rwandan figures such as the late Juvénal Habyarimana, the former president of Rwanda.
