Those equivalences had tricky pitfalls for instance , they was a time $ 1 = 1 Gourde ( Currency in Haiti ). Still the people of Haiti were poor.
When your economy is not strong and your currency is overvalued , there is high probability of seeing investors running away from you.
Correct advice

Op its better if you currency is weaker than dollar many country even manipulates their currency to make it weaker eg China, Japan even south Korea purposely wants their currency to be weaker. Nigeria with little products capabilities and high need for foreign investors will be at disadvantage if $1 equals naira as it'll discourage investors as they'll have to spend more capitals also it reduces your competition on the market as an exporting entity (eg people will readily buy Chinese goods than US why is because it's way cheaper) so laser you currency the more partners you'll have for trading as they'll naturally tilt towards the cheaper alternative.

Well the main impedance might be at importing which might cost more but a strong production country like China hardly imports foreign goods hence you'll have your currency in local distribution while still competing in the international market with a favorable price as against the those selling in Euros or dollars.

In essence a $1 to 1# will be a disadvantage to our economy as it'll will make us fully import depending due to cheaper price. It'll severally affect our international trade, it'll reduce production and foreign investment in Nigeria. In the long run 9ja economy go collapse with mad hyperinflation
