Did you try Hectors suggestion:

"cast it
select info::text from sample;"

test=# select info::text from sample;
                                                        info

  {"person": {"age": 25, "name": {"lastname": "bob", "firstname": 
"Alice"}, "empId": "E067", "phone": 9804484234}}


If that is not what you want there are a whole slew of functions that 
allow you to manipulate the data:

*NOTE* the above is from Postgres 9.5, not all of them may be available 
in earlier version.
