What does tenure mean?

Well it has many meanings, Land Tenure is how long you can own the land, Tenure of office, is how long you can stay in that position , for example, an incumbent(current) president can hold the office of presidency for 4 years at a time. Tenure can also mean , when a professor has been teaching at the same institution for past their probationary period, usually six years, once granted tenure, you'll get a promotion, an increase in salary with more benefits, and a secured teaching career.

Tenure has two meanings:
1) a term of office. During his tenure as a dean he implemented a lot of effective strategies.
2) property rights. We should simplify our law system in terms of tenure rights cases👌🏻
