I am sorry, but this is a totally useless answer, as far as I am concerned.

I realise that it is frustrating, but hostility is just going to reduce your chances of getting assistance.

First, is the answer to my question yes or no ?

As long as your have the private keys, you can get the coins on all chains.

From the sounds of things, your BCH and BTG that match the BTC you had on Armory before your moved them have not moved.

Both BTH and BTG have relay protection, so if you sign on one chain it doesn't work for the other chains.

Then, can someone name a wallet that support BCH and BTG ?

It doesn't really matter much, you just need a wallet of some kind for each.

Finally, can someone name the different steps to be followed ?

BTG has not being doing very well on security, so if you tell a BTG client your keys, then you might lose your BTC too. 

BTC is worth vastly more than BTG.  You do not want to put your BTC at risk for the benefit of getting some BTG coins.

DO NOT DO ANY OF THIS UNTIL AT LEAST ONE OTHER PERSON HAS SAID IT IS SAFE

The first thing is to move your BTC to a new wallet so that it is protected by a whole new set of private keys.

Create a new "sweep" wallet on Armory for BTC.  Move all your BTC into that wallet.

This means that your BTC balance will be zero for all other wallets. Therefore, you don't care if someone gets those private keys, since the accounts are empty.

You still shouldn't publish them obviously.  Wait 6+ confirms before doing anything after that.

You can get a list of all private keys for a wallet by doubling clicking on the wallet
- Select Backup this wallet
- Select See other backup options
- Select Export Key Lists
- Click Export Key Lists

This gives you a list of the private keys for your wallet. 

Make sure you don't export the keys for your new sweep wallet.

You can then import those keys into another wallet.  It would depend on the wallet.  I would suggest a web wallet since they are easy to setup and disposable.  You can probably find web-wallets for BCH and BCG.

In Electrum, it is

Wallet -> private keys -> sweep

You then give a list.  In your export file, you want to use the PrivBase58: option.  It is possible that electrum will just read in your private keys.  You might have to copy and paste the addresses that you want to transfer.

I guess you didn't read the thread that was linked, because it should be clear from my answer that the answer to that question is Yes.

Then, can someone name a wallet that support BCH and BTG ?
AFAIK, there is no trustworthy wallet that supports both BCH and BTG simultaneously.

Finally, can someone name the different steps to be followed ?
The steps are right here:
For BCH, please read https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/using-armory-on-the-bch-chain-2070058

Armory currently does not support BTG, so you will need to export your private keys into a wallet that does.

Hello,
I had a few BTC in Armory.
I removed a part from it "n" to put it on an exchange platform before the creation of BCH.
This platform credited me of n BTC, then of n BCH and n BTG after the forks.
I removed the rest "m" from Armory after the forks - so I can't send them in a BCH or BTG purse now.
Is there a possibility of getting back m BCH and m BTG ?
After all the ownership of these BTC is duly noted in the blockchain of BCH and BTG, even though it was before their existence, no ? Huh
Thank you in advance.
