strip_tags() should solve your problem.

It is working in http://sandbox.onlinephpfunctions.com/ . Like you said PHP 5.6 environment. Copied your string 

$abc='<ol><li>nice products </li></ol>';
echo strip_tags($abc);

Result is : nice products

if you want to remove all html tags use strip_tags() function:

$abc = '<ol><li>nice products </li></ol>';
echo strip_tags($abc);
