Other provinces in which the party has failed to get candidates include Zvimba, Chegutu and Mhondoro Mubaira in Mash West.
Mwonzora has also not fared well in Manicaland failing to get candidates for Makoni Ward 4, Mutare Ward 9 and Ward 17.
The party has however received numerous applications from candidates intending to contest in parts of Harare and Marondera.
Mwonzora has previously been accused of seeking to have the elections scrapped in a clandestine meeting with President Emmerson Mnangagwa.
According to reports, the former MDC Secretary-General is in favour of a Government of National Unity (GNU).
