Alabama tax certificate question

I just purchased a tax certificate for a half acre of land that has a cell tower on it.  I am at a loss as to how I "possess" this property.  Basically the owner leases the land to the cell tower.  Would an ejectment apply in this case?  I would like to eventually have the lease to the cell tower. Any ideas?

@Brad Wright, If you have only a tax certificate, you must given written notice to vacate (at any time after you receive your certificate) and then wait 6 months before filing ejectment.  If you have a tax deed, you can file ejectment at any time.
