Your problem with using the telepathy-glib bindings will be integrating
with the GLib mainloop to receive events and callbacks. I don't
specifically know about EFL, but nowadays Qt and GLib share a mainloop.

Possibly this blog post is useful to you:

If you can't integrate the mainloops, you may have to stick with the
low-level telepathy-python bindings,
