How much text do you want to remove?

That image is fairly low quality, lots of jpeg artifacts.

Unlikely that any single operation is best.

Resynthesizer + heal selection for some parts. See the earlier post on
installing resynthesizer.

G'mic plugin www.gmic.eu In the repair section, the inpaint-metamorphical filter
works for the larger text.

Going to be some cleaning up with the regular gimp clone tool.
